Immerse yourself in healing sounds that calm your mind, body and emotions
Our Sound Spa uses a range of scientifically proven sound frequencies to promote health and well-being. This is both an art and a science and you will find yourself immersed in something akin to a cellular massage as the sounds wash over you and through you.
These therapeutic sounds will encourage a reset of your nervous system. All your stress and tension will melt away, leaving you feeling refreshed and deeply relaxed.
We take time to personalize your sound healing journey, selecting the right instruments to create an optimized therapeutic experience.
Sound therapy is non-invasive, highly enjoyable, and cost-effective. In contrast to a traditional massage, which works on the surface tissue of the skin, sound therapy works all the way through your skin, muscle, tissue, and organs. It nourishes all the cells of your body.
It is important to note that true healing can only take place when there is harmony within and you are at peace.
Sound therapy is both an art and a science
Sound is a powerful healing force
Sound conveys immense power and has a profound impact on our minds and bodies. Sound has been used as a healing technique for centuries and is mentioned in the most ancient of our spiritual texts. The sound of lapping waves calms us and the gentle rustling of the leaves in the trees evokes a sense of peace. These responses involve physiological and biochemical reactions within the body. In our sound spa we use the power of sound vibrations to encourage relaxation and healing.
The natural way to relieve stress
When we are out of balance, mentally, emotionally and physically, we experience this imbalance as a lack of ease within the body, often termed 'disease'. This imbalance can be brought about by a number of factors, but the major one is stress. Using sound waves, we can soothe the nervous system and encourage a restoration of harmony at a cellular level.
Sound will be the medicine of the future
Edgar Cayce
Sound waves formulated for specific parts of the body
Every organ in the body, vibrates at a specific rate. When it is out of balance and, perhaps, experiencing pain, specific frequencies of sound waves can be directed to that part of the body. Since the sound waves flow through the water in your body at 4x the speed that they travel through the air, (we are 70% water) you can feel the healing vibrations working within you. So, for example, if it is a painful knee, back pain, high blood pressure, anxiety or a mental health issue, you will find sound therapy to be highly beneficial. We can also attune the sounds to create harmony between the left and right sides of the brain which helps to create a highly relaxed, meditative state. This promotes better sleep and clarity of mind.
A wide range of instruments
A sample of the instruments we use:
We create healing sound waves via special instruments, such as:
- Himalayan singing bowls which produce a full range of frequencies and overtones
- An exquisite Earth gong which creates deep, warm, healing tones and amazing dynamics with endless subtleties of tone
- Tuning forks, tuned to the Solfeggio frequencies, for whole body energy balancing
- Traditional Pangi seed shell shakers deliver organic, rich, unique sounds
- Tingsha cymbals produce exceptionally pure, long-lasting tones
- The Ocean drum generates a soothing sound, reminiscent of ocean waves
- Koshi chimes produce crystalline relaxing sounds of the elements: earth, water, air and fire
- The soothing sounds of Nature are also incorporated into the soundscape
We also use more traditional instruments: piano and the silver flute,
The Sound Spa is located in the beautiful Mansell Valley

Don't take our word for it - read what others say about their sound spa experience.
Kim is brilliant! I consider myself very fortunate to have had her as my practitioner. She is knowledgeable and you can tell that she really cares about her clients, always taking the time to listen and provide the best approach for each person. Highly recommended!
I am lost for words to explain how physically and emotionally refreshed I feel. I have a lot of stress in my life and the hour I spent in the sound spa was exquisite. I felt renewed and ready to face the world again. I will be back!
The Tibetan bowls are heavenly and resonated deeply within me. The other sound instruments were equally wonderful. The beautiful, harmonious sound that is created is something other worldly. It is clear there is a deep understanding of the physics of sound. I can't wait to return!
Profound is the word that comes to mind. One minute I was aware and the next I was suspended in time. This is as close to heaven as I have ever been. Kim's voice in itself has a healing quality which instantly puts you at your ease. I will be back.
We stayed in the Sound Spa vacation rental. It was so lovely and peaceful with only the sound of songbirds and visiting deer. It has all the amenities you would need for a perfect vacation. Relaxing in the hot tub under the stars was a magical experience. This is our third visit, and it will not be our last!
I've been to sound baths organized by my local yoga studio and, although relaxing, it was a highly elevated experience when having a private sound spa treatment. The instruments are much closer to you, and you can feel the resonance deeply - it's extremely powerful. The fee is so reasonable that you can treat yourself to a session on a weekly basis.
Private sound therapy sessions
Set aside one hour just for you (or you and a partner or friend), and immerse yourself in sacred sounds, scientifically proven to foster health and enhance your physical and emotional well-being.
The experience will be optimized to take account of your unique circumstances. For instance, if you need help with calming your nervous system, specific sound frequencies will be chosen to address this or if you are experiencing pain, healing frequencies will be chosen to bring you some relief.
Perhaps you simply want to ease your tensions, feel fully rested and reap the benefits of deep tissue relaxation. It will be our pleasure to arrange this for you.
