What do you get when you integrate a musically inclined computer geek with a licensed massage therapist who has a passionate interest in healing, sound and vibration and who immerses himself in mindfulness exploration? Dave Fisher, LMT.
In his former life, Dave was a successful systems analyst in a corporate environment that fed this wallet but not his soul. Nearing burnout, he walked away from that role to embrace a journey of self-discovery and intentional awareness. Dave’s curiosity and hunger for knowledge led him to study diverse spiritual disciplines that awakened in him an intense desire to ease the suffering of others.
Dave spent years learning about various healing modalities and found that the emerging sound and vibration field truly fascinated him as well as deeply effecting him spiritually. He has attended several institutions, from The Monroe Institute to Zen Mountain Monastery and is currently a zen practitioner at The Zen Center of Syracuse Hoen-ji. Under the direction of Dr. Jeffrey Thompson, he completed a Bio-Tuning® and Sonic Induction Therapy™ Intensive course at the Center for Neuroacoustic Research in CA. It was then that he began to see how his computer programming background could combine with healing sound modalities.
He started plumbing any and all resources on psychoacoustic sound to lay the groundwork for his growing vision -- weekend group workshops using individually customized psychoacoustic sound recordings to aid emotional, physical and spiritual healing. It was also during this time that he participated in a weekend massage workshop and found that his innate healing touch found an immensely nourishing outlet through the work. He enrolled in The Finger Lakes School of Massage in upstate NY and 1000 hours later, took his state and national exams to become a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT).
Thousands of hours later, as one sound composition after another was written, discarded, overhauled, fine-tuned and then tested during hundreds of massage therapy sessions, both Deep Waters and Sound Sleep were birthed.
Dave continues to develop other compositions and explore the heart of sound and it's ability to transform human awareness.
