I started experiencing intense, unilateral exertion headaches out of the blue. Every time I would laugh, cough, work out, etc., I would feel pain. I was extremely concerned because I had never had headaches of any kind in the past. I visited a neurologist and was told that it could be something minor or something as serious as a brain tumor, but that he wouldn't know unless I got an MRI/MRA. Almost $2,000 later, I was told that the imaging results were normal, and the doctor still didn't know what was causing the headaches. I get blood work done to rule out some other potential causes. Again, all results came back normal, yet the headaches persisted.

I've known Bo for years, and at the time I was experiencing this problem he was the Assistant coach of the team I run. He heard me complaining about the headaches to our team's AT on a bus trip to an away game. He suggested I try a session with him. I had nothing to lose and everything to gain, so I agreed. I will say that I am a big skeptic of any kind of alternative therapy, and I honestly didn't think it could possibly do anything to help something this serious. I was so wrong. I kid you not when I say that the VERY NEXT DAY my headaches (by this time now present for about 3 months) were completely gone!!!

Bo used tuning forks, colored sashes and lights. Session took about an hour and I only needed one session and it was completely relaxing to receive.

The intense headaches I had been experiencing for almost 3 months were gone the day after treatment.

Absolutely! I would definitely do it again, but this time I would try it BEFORE spending thousands of dollars on doctors and imaging.

I had miraculous results from the session, which I myself cannot explain (I'm sure Bo can). I would recommend anyone experiencing any type of issue to be open to trying this before spending a bunch of money on doctors and medicines. You just might be surprised. It works! Thank you, Bo!!!

I can hardly believe what has surfaced and what is dissolving. Nothing else helped me get at what has troubled me so deeply, but since I started working with Bo, memories have bubbled up from far far back that I didn't even know it was possible to revisit and resolve issues so easily.

I have actually been able to inner-source so deep that I could hear "the noise" from the past. For example, the ruckus from the family feud over a piece of land came up. All this time, I thought there was something wrong with me. It was the "noise" from the feud that tormented me. Bo's work brought up the "noise" that offended my ears and my dignity.

I have never experienced anything like his work. What I like about it is that the sound and the light therapy he uses are pure empathy. The empathy from his use of tuning fork and chime vibration and light and color silk allows me to slip into the deepest relaxation. During Bo's sessions, I sink further into the subconscious than in my own private meditation practice. During the week, I write and it all flows up and out.

What he does is perfect medicine.

Bo has a wonderful sound healing room located at the California Institute of Healing Science (CIHS). Upon entering, you will find a beautiful setup of chimes, lights, and serenity. He speaks with confidence and knows this industry. From his soft-spoken accent, to the knowledge he portrays, there is definitely a soothing energy that Bo radiates. The massage is relaxing and the sound/vibration of the monochord is simply divine. This is the only bed of its kind in San Diego. You instantly understand the power to connect with healing. Let it radiate through your body and drift back to balance.

I was able to measure the GDV before and after the sound healing.

A GDV reads

Emotional and physical energy

Chakra energy activity and alignment

Organ, adrenal and cardiovascular system

After a 30 minutes session with Bo that included pulse reading and subtle field scanning. Application of tuning forks on various points on my body, lights on my body including silks and essences. Topped with an acoustic sound bath on the Feeltone sound bed. The sound bed is a full size massage table with strings underneath and when played the vibration penetrates your entire body and mind and soul.

My emotional energy field went up by 2269 points. From 24959 to 27228

My physical energy field went up by 1373 points. From 27228 to 30010

Sound, light and bodywork therapy will change your frequency, raise your consciousness and heal pain naturally.

— Amelia Leigh Hall, Staff writer The Life Connection Magazine July 2015

I have attended several of Bo's workshops and sound frequency presentations, and worked with him publicly in workshop forums. The last time we worked together, at the end of the day, I got stuck in the back of the room signing books, while Bo moved gracefully throughout the crowd signing clients.

What sets Bo apart from other so-called "sound healers" in our field is his deep dedication to his form, and his lifelong personal inquiry into the dynamics of harmonic frequency as it relates to the human brain and nervous system. With a startling array of acoustic sound instruments – pure-tone gongs, chimes, drums, reeds, winds – Bo opens up a channel to Source Energy, filling the room with celestial sound and attuning participants to their optimal neuro-energetic frequency. While the experience itself is an astonishment, the results are often unexpected and profound – chronic pain, stress, depression, degenerative, metabolic and autoimmune issues, the list rolls on – sort of pack up and leave the building. The entire energetic field surrounding the participants elevates, transforming in harmony with the shared intention for spiritual upliftment. For an observer, it's spectral magic. For a participant, well, it's a trip. And in the center of the circle, there's Bo, eyes half-closed, wooden mallet in hand, in a seamless, timeless dance with his fine instruments, giving the people what they need, channeling the soundtrack of the soul.

There is something profoundly transformative about simply being in the presence of a master. Your heart knows without question that this person knows you at the deepest level, has walked the path before you, has come to show you the way. You can breathe, relax, surrender, knowing you are perfectly safe, you can go as deep as you need to go. The skill of managing the experience of a roomful of journeying spirits is a remarkable one, requiring clear focus and adaptability to the rolling waves of energy coming through the crowd. Bo is a naturally gifted spiritual whitewater guide. He works with grace, elegance, and a keen eye to the needs of his clients. It's inspiring to watch him in action.

Bo's academic and professional background is impeccable. He is a licensed Holistic Health Practitioner with spotless credentials. He is a Qi Gong master, a yogi, a martial artist, a skilled teacher, a devoted practitioner and lifelong student of higher consciousness. He maintains a deep and evolving awareness of the influence of sound frequency over the very arrangement of matter in our bodies and the coordination of cellular systems to a unified functional relationship. He understands that health is a function of innumerable processes involving the interaction of consciousness and internal systems. He knows that the human being is far more than a jumble of material molecules in a flesh and bone container.

Bo embodies a clear and present message for our times. He walks his talk; he lives by it. He's every bit a man in full who has earned his place at the front of the room. I am honored to share a stage, a classroom, or a healing circle with him. He is fully present and available to every participant, and follows up carefully with clients and event organizers. He is thoughtful, detailed, and responsive. He is also gentle, compassionate, and kind. He knows how to listen. And let's face it, he's a good-looking guy.

I would recommend Bo without hesitation for a keynote spot at any event, conference, symposium, workshop, educational function, clinic, or retreat where the intersection of consciousness and healing is a focal point. I am honored to stand beside him and behind him.

Respectfully,

Doug Heyes, M.A.

My dad had talked to my previous coach, Bo, and he recommended that I do his treatment of sound, color, and movement therapy. This type of treatment is all new to me. However I am so glad I was exposed to this! My ankle started feeling better the day of and my range of motion had increased. I am not sure how but it was amazing!

The tuning forks used were a bit intimidating, as I've never seen them before. It did not hurt at all; therefore I would recommend this to everyone. It is a new, and effective way to recover more efficiently. Having had a couple of sessions with him already I will continue to do so until my ankle is completely healed. Thank you so much!

Vibrating sticks (Tuning Forks) were placed on either side of my lower Achilles. It would be placed about two seconds on and then two seconds off for about 15 intervals for about 7-10 minutes, it actually felt rather relaxing

I felt immediate relief, but was not healed enough to play soccer right away. The next day I played in my soccer game with a little remaining pain in my heel. I just wore turf shoes to spread the remaining pain. After the game my heel hurt, but not as much as before I was treated. I didn't play soccer for four days after this game and I do not recall any significant pain when I returned to soccer practice.

Yes, because it gave me physical relief. And, since I believe in Coach Bo, I felt as if his procedure must work.

- P. Greenberg, Carlsbad

It's obvious, my systems were out of balance. Bo brought it back into harmony: spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. I had not felt this good since before my symptoms occurred before the operation; he brought me back to my real self and did this amazing restorative transformation in only 1 1/2 – 2 hours. Besides, the journey with Bo inspired some awesome experiences and images along the way. Bo goes in depth with his technique, he's very clear in his diagnosis and knows how to repair and rebuild the issues at hand. I did not expect such a total transformation and makeover but was thrilled at the result. I cannot recommend Bo enough to you. Just settle into his studio and let him do the work. You'll come out feeling like a million bucks.

When you ask me my first memory of Bo Nielsen, I would have to stop and really think back to when I was 10 or 11 years old. But if you were to ask me one of the quickest memories that comes to mind, it is on the soccer field. Not strange for circumstance, as Bo was my soccer coach. I vividly remember a moment when we were doing a technical ball skills warmup and Coach Bo ran us through the usual movemements. Cuts left and right, feints, turns and change of speed. But then he prompted us to think of a direction outside of forward, back, left or right. The team was stumped. Then he scoops the ball up with his toe over the leg of the oncoming defender and I remember being surprised. I was surprised because I had never thought to go up before. That was Bo. Always surprising us with new perspectives and new ideas that could alter your game 1% each day to make you better. I worked with Bo in this way from 11yrs old all the way until I was 25. He went from being a personal coach to my high school coach and then a coach for my professional women's team. And for all 15 or so years, Bo would continually come up with ways to challenge my brain in soccer and life.

One of my favorite things that Bo brought into my life was the power of visualization. As an athlete this was another outside-the-box approach to winning in a physical sport. The first time we used visualization as a soccer performance enhancer was my freshman year of high school. Frankly, I was 14 and thought it was silly. He walked us through the feelings of winning the game in our minds. Through specific imagery and words, Bo would paint the picture of success. I didn't draw a direct connection right away. But over the course of those high school years, Bo was clear and consistent with his approach to making us better through visualization. With each progressive year, we won more games and had growing success. The visualization had a profound impact on my confidence and mental strength. When the team would get close to the end of tight games, it felt like I had been there before. I was comfortable with intense, high risk situations and we found a lot of success. When things would go wrong, I was strong enough to get my mind right and come back from the failure. The team won tournaments, league, and got to the state finals. When Bo joined with the professional team I played for we made playoffs year after year before winning the national championship in 2013.

Coach Bo helped to set the stage for me as a confident young female. Since having Bo as a mentor, I have had success outside of athletics as well. The mental clarity that was cultivated under his careful eye was a great baseline for the adult I am now. I have been given the opportunity to find success in college, as a Division 1 NCAA soccer coach, as a self employed business owner and as a human being. I still visualize on a weekly basis but it's no longer about the game winning penalty kick in double overtime. I now have the opportunity to mentor kids in mental strength, goal setting and creative solutions just like Coach Bo did for me.

Thank you for the coaching, mentoring and support through the years.

After one treatment with Bo, she ditched the crutches, was putting weight on the foot, and then played in her soccer game 3 days later. Bo really understands athletes, the pressure they are under AND the injuries they sustain. I have sent several people to Bo and they have reported similar results. I recommend him to anyone and everyone. "
