PLUS so many more!

Treatment options:

What is Sound Therapy?

Sound Therapy offers a different path to healing, either enhancing or offering an alternative to traditional talk therapy. A sound therapy session engages the parasympathetic nervous system, responsible for the body's "rest and digest" functions. By activating this system, sound therapy helps restore balance, reduce stress, and promote emotional and physical healing, allowing clients to process life’s challenges with greater clarity and ease.

Clients don’t need any prior experience to benefit from this treatment. Simply lie down and practice deep listening. During a one-hour session, a sound healing practitioner curates a personalized sound bath. Instruments such as Tibetan singing bowls, crystal bowls, and chimes stimulate the brain and body effortlessly. As these frequencies interact with the nervous system, they gently guide you into a state of deep relaxation.
