The Tuning Fork


Book Description

The tuning fork book by Francine Milford takes readers on a journey of using tuning forks throughout history for a variety of uses from setting the tone of musical instruments to testing for hearing loss and detecting fractures in athletes. In order to write this book, I have had to do a year of research combing the scientific and medical journals for information to share with my readers that are of documented value, not just mere opinion pieces. By using this research, tuning fork practitioners around the world can have a better understanding of how and why sound and vibration can affect the human body. This book is the first of its kind on the market and I am proud to be the one to bring this work to the public. This book has been a culmination of all of my work for the last 30+ years and happily, I am finally seeing the scientific community coming around to appreciate the many facets of this work.
