Rattles are musical as well as healing instruments. The musical sounds and soothing rhythms produced from shaking these handmade rattles can "tune" up a bodily function or system, remove energy blockages, and bring about a sense of grounding and peace. Native Americans have long used rattles in ceremonies to ensure blessings. So whenever you feel a bit tense, pick up your Appaloosa Pots rattle and start shaking!
