A sound bath is a deeply immersive experience designed to use frequency and vibration to invite a state of relaxation. While sound healing is a gentle practice, the powerful vibrations produced by gongs, singing bowls, and other instruments can affect the body in various ways.

To ensure you have a restorative and safe experience, please review the following considerations:

A Note for Your Sound Journey

Sound therapy is generally very safe, but because sound is a physical vibration, there are a few instances where extra caution—or a quick chat with your doctor—is recommended.

Please practice with care or consult a professional if you have:

• Epilepsy: Some frequencies or rhythmic patterns can potentially trigger seizures in individuals with sound-sensitive epilepsy.
• Pregnancy: Sound baths are often wonderful during pregnancy; however, we recommend avoiding them during the first trimester. In later stages, we advise staying further away from the loudest instruments (like large gongs) to ensure the baby is not overstimulated by deep vibrations.
• Medical Implants & Devices: If you have a pacemaker, internal defibrillator, or metal plates/joint replacements, the deep vibrations of the instruments (especially if placed directly on or near the body) can occasionally cause discomfort or interference.
• Sound Sensitivity: If you experience severe Tinnitus or Hyperacusis (extreme sensitivity to sound), the frequencies may be overstimulating. Bringing a pair of earplugs can help you enjoy the “feeling” of the vibration while protecting your hearing.
• Recent Injury or Surgery: If you have had a recent surgery, please ensure you are comfortable lying still for the duration of the session and that vibrations won’t disturb any healing tissues.
• Mental Health & Trauma: Sound can sometimes release stored emotions or “stuck” energy. If you are managing PTSD or a history of severe trauma, please ensure you feel grounded before the session and know that it is okay to step out if the experience feels too intense.

Your Comfort First: If at any time the volume or frequency feels overwhelming, please feel free to sit up, take a sip of water, or quietly step out of the room. This is your journey, and your comfort is the priority.
