Why Try a Sound Bath?
A sound bath gives you time to slow down and experience the tones and vibrations of instruments played live around you. People come for different reasons:
-
To relax and ease stress. Step away from the demands of everyday life and give yourself permission to slow down.
-
To make meditation feel easier. If sitting in silence is difficult, the changing sounds give your attention something gentle to return to.
-
To create space for yourself. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, mentally busy, or simply need a break, a sound bath offers time without expectations.
-
To experience something different. No movement, special skills, or meditation experience are needed. Simply get comfortable and listen.
There's no particular experience you're supposed to have. Some people feel deeply relaxed, others notice thoughts or emotions arising, and some simply enjoy the sounds.
What Makes Our Sound Baths Different?
Unlike larger group sound baths, our experiences are intentionally private, welcoming just one or two people at a time. Each guest relaxes on their own comfortable, padded massage table while crystal singing bowls and other instruments are played live throughout the session.
Rather than listening to a recording, you'll experience changing layers of sound created in the moment. Every session unfolds a little differently, making the experience personal to you.
Private Sound Bath Experience
Come on your own or share the experience with someone special. Settle in, get comfortable, and enjoy an hour of live sound without anything you need to do or achieve.
Reiki + Live Sound Experience
For those who would like to combine sound with Reiki, Christie provides gentle Reiki while Becca creates a live, intuitive sound bath. Available for one or two people, this experience brings both practices together in a peaceful, private setting.
Whether you're seeking quiet time alone or a meaningful experience to share, our goal is simple: to offer a welcoming space where you can slow down, relax, and enjoy the moment.
What to Expect During Your Sound Bath
01 — Settle In
We'll welcome you into the room and give you time to get comfortable on your own padded massage table. Whether you're visiting alone or sharing the experience with someone special, you'll have a peaceful space to relax. You're welcome to set a personal intention, but there's no need to.
02 — Experience Live Sound
Settle in as crystal singing bowls, chimes, tuning forks, and other instruments create changing layers of sound around you. Every session unfolds naturally, with sounds played live rather than through a recording. There's nothing you need to follow or achieve. Simply listen and enjoy the experience.
03 — Reiki, If You've Chosen It
If you've booked Reiki + Live Sound, Christie provides gentle Reiki while Becca creates a personalized live sound bath. For two-person sessions, Christie moves between both guests, allowing each person to experience Reiki alongside the sounds.
If you've chosen the Private Sound Bath Experience, your session focuses entirely on live sound without Reiki.
04 — A Gentle Close
As the sounds gradually come to a close, you'll have a few quiet moments to rest before getting up. There's no rush to immediately return to the busyness of your day.
🕯️ Evening Candlelight Experience
Our 7:30 PM session is held by candlelight, creating an especially warm and peaceful atmosphere.
