As a chiropractor, I’ve always believed in the body’s incredible ability to heal when given the right tools and support. Over the years, I’ve seen patients with chronic pain, inflammation, and stress-related disorders respond beautifully to chiropractic care—but I also wanted to offer a gentler, more foundational therapy that could help restore balance at a cellular level. That’s what led me to Cyma Therapy.

What Is Cyma Therapy?
Cyma Therapy (pronounced “sigh-ma”) is a form of therapeutic sound technology that uses specific frequencies to support the body’s natural healing processes. It’s based on cymatics, the science of how sound vibrations affect matter. The therapy delivers low-frequency acoustic waves to the body through a hand-held applicator, stimulating cellular resonance and encouraging tissues to return to a balanced, healthy state.
Unlike many therapies that focus solely on symptom relief, Cyma Therapy works at a deep, cellular level, addressing the root of imbalance rather than just managing discomfort.

What Conditions Does It Treat?
Cyma Therapy has proven effective in supporting a wide range of conditions, including:

• Chronic pain (neck, back, joints, and muscles)
• Arthritis and joint stiffness
• Sciatica and nerve irritation
• Insomnia and anxiety
• Digestive imbalances
• Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue
• Sinus congestion and respiratory conditions
• Headaches and migraines

Because the therapy is gentle and non-invasive, it’s suitable for people of all ages, from children with sensory issues to older adults seeking relief from degenerative joint pain.

How Does It Work?
Every organ and tissue in your body has a natural resonant frequency. When injury, stress, or illness occurs, those frequencies can become disrupted. Cyma Therapy uses precise sound frequencies (delivered through coded waveforms) to reintroduce healthy vibrations into the affected tissues. It’s a bit like tuning a musical instrument that’s gone slightly off pitch—Cyma Therapy helps bring the body back into harmony.

This stimulation encourages improved circulation, reduced inflammation, enhanced lymphatic flow, and often a noticeable reduction in pain and tension. And because it works through sound waves, there’s no manipulation, needles, or discomfort involved.

What to Expect During a Session
Cyma Therapy sessions are calming and relaxing. You’ll lie or sit comfortably as I apply the sound therapy device to specific areas of the body. Most patients report feeling a sense of warmth or tingling in the area being treated. Some fall asleep during the session—it’s that soothing.
A typical session lasts 30 to 45 minutes, and many patients begin to feel relief after just a few visits. For chronic conditions, a series of sessions may be recommended to promote lasting results.

Patient Experiences

“After years of struggling with arthritis in my hands, I was skeptical anything would help. Dr. Dukes introduced me to Cyma Therapy, and within three sessions, the stiffness and pain began to ease. I can knit again—something I thought I had to give up for good.”     — Judith M., age 59

“I came to Dr. Dukes for chronic neck pain and insomnia. She incorporated Cyma Therapy along with my chiropractic adjustments. Not only did my neck loosen up, but I’m now sleeping through the night for the first time in years.”     — Marcus D., age 45

A Compassionate Path to Healing
In my practice, I believe healing isn’t just physical—it’s emotional and energetic too. Cyma Therapy allows me to support the whole person, gently and effectively. Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic pain, emotional stress, or simply feel out of balance, this therapy offers a path back to wellness that feels as good as it works.

If you’re curious whether Cyma Therapy is right for you, I’d be honored to discuss your concerns and help you take the next step toward healing.

Dr. Dukes is tuning patients wellness through Cymatic therapy and it's changing people's lives. As one of the few sound therapy practitioners in central Florida, Dr. Dukes feels blessed to provide this cutting-edge technology that helps so many people alleviate pain and reduce inflammation while improving mental clarity.

Similar to ultrasound, Cymatic therapy also known as Cyma therapy or sound therapy, uses specialized medical devices to transmit sound waves in specific frequencies through the body. Different frequencies are used to treat different symptoms.

Dr. Dukes employs Cyma therapy to effectively treat a variety of patient health issues. It is effective in treating inflammation and pain resulting from conditions such as asthma, chronic fatigue, headaches, joint mobility, hormone problems, fibromyalgia, strokes, and depression. Patients also report better sleep, reduced stress, sharper focus, clearer thinking, and a greater ability to recall memories.

Therapy effectiveness is measured in subjective methods such as patient quality of life feedback as well as empirical measures such as function & mobility tests, symptom improvement, and inflammation reduction. Thermography is a medical imaging process used for identifying inflammation in the body. It is used for diagnosis and analysis as well as defining effectiveness.

A variety of research studies have used thermographic images captured before and after Cyma therapy sessions to determine session results. A Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) study revealed a stunning decrease in inflammation as can illustrated in the images below.

A variety of long-term research projects are underway seeking to leverage the unique treatment modalities of sound therapy. Notable potential treatment applications include Alzheimer’s, COPD and emphysema. Although still in trial phases, early results are promising.

And loved ones often report being delighted by the improved mood, higher energy levels, reduced anxiety and fewer mood swings. Dr. Dukes commented, "We're so blessed when loved ones tell us how it feels that patients are back to themselves - they're happy and energetic again."

How Long are Cymatic Therapy Sessions?
Treatments typically last between 45-90 minutes depending upon the patients’ needs and which modalities Dr. Dukes and her team employ during care. Some sessions may be as quick as 30-minutes.
 
How Many Cymatic Therapy Sessions Are Required?
Dr. Dukes creates individualized treatment plans unique to each patient. In most cases where an acute issue is present, Dr. Dukes will prescribe multiple sessions per week for the initial treatment with less frequent sessions as healing progresses. Minor health problems may often be resolved with 3-5 treatments over a 2-week period. Patients with chronic issues often prefer regular weekly treatments.

When Do Patients Feel the Healing Effects?
Each case is unique. Some patients experience symptom reduction almost immediately. Others may take up to 24 hours to notice symptom improvements.

Is Cymatic Therapy Addictive, Is It Safe?
Cymatic therapy is not addictive, but feeling great and being healthier might be. And it’s safe with the FDA recognizing Cyma therapy instruments as Class 1 devices that abide by the safety requirements of the Consumer Protection Agency.
Dr. Dukes only provides safe and effective healthcare through proven, natural treatment methods that do not involve invasive procedures nor the use of dangerous drugs.

What About Cymatic Therapy Side Effects?
Cymatic treatment is a very subtle and soothing therapy.  Patients often feel tingling, heat or tension release during or shortly after treatment. These are very mild sensations. Patients have not reported pain during or after treatment. Occasionally patients report unusual sweating, vivid dreams, muscle soreness, fatigue, or hyperactivity after treatment. When healing responses do occur, they are typically mild and quick, lasting less than 24 hours.

What are the Success Rates for Cymatic Therapy?
An average of 80% of our patients experience a direct beneficial response resulting in measurable symptom reduction of acute symptoms. We have found that applying sound to the body is successful in resolving variety of health challenges including Allergies, Alopecia, Arthritic pain, Back Pain, Chronic Fatigue, Digestive Issues, Leaky Gut, Joint Injuries, Migraines, Moodiness, Stress and Fatigue.
