[CAUT] set of C forks

[Wolfley, Eric (wolfleel)]

I've seen sets of tuning forks advertised for sale in a new-age journal that were intended to be used for "chakra tuning". As I remember, they were quite expensive too!

Maybe this is a side-line we all could get into...have your pianos and chakras tuned in one trip...balancing the universe would be extra, of course.

I've also seen tuning forks that are tuned to pitches that are supposed to have some sort of healing ability.

Fred-
These are "medical" tuning forks, used to test hearing. Some doctors still use them for a quick assessment of hearing. There were several interesting techniques for hearing tests, such as "Hold the fork to the top of the skull and have the patient report if it sounds louder in one ear."
