About Sound Therapy

Sound Therapy is a simple yet powerful way to rest your mind and body.

The only thing you have to do is lay down, relax, and listen.

A Sound Therapy Session is a full body listening experience, where every cell in our body is being stimulated with low-frequency sounds and vibration.

It impacts us on physiological, neurological and psychological levels. Suppressed processes that are deeply encapsulated in the body and mind can be accessed and brought to the surface again to be released.

Music and sound play an essential role in our lives and most information we process is of acoustic nature. Therefore, we feel comfortable around sound, which makes it a very pleasant, non-invasive therapeutic medium.

How Sound Affects US

The sounds and vibration produced from instruments such as singing bowls, gongs, chimes, xylophones and our voice, stimulate our brainwaves from a beta state into alpha or theta states of deep relaxation and revitalization.

The vibration also helps to synchronize or rebalance the frequencies within our organism, and can therefore support the treatment of illnesses related to mental imbalances (anxiety, stress, depression, insomnia), for alleviating physical inflammation and reinforcing the immune system.

Our system responds so well to this therapy as we’re mostly made of water which is a great resonance medium for vibro-acoustic treatments.

Sound Therapy is a versatile method to support all kinds of life challenges. Whether you’re looking to recover from a certain source of stress or physical pain, find ease during pregnancy, improve sleep or any other dis-ease.

If you create a recurring practice you notice a positive impact on your ability to focus. You gain clarity and awareness, and you'll be more present with the people around you and your environment. It's also an easy way to build a meditation habit.

Besides the positive shift in your awareness, Sound Therapy also helps us activate our self-healing properties. This simply means that by taking time to relax and listen - to our body, mind and emotions - we get a better understanding of our personal needs and how to take good care of ourselves on all levels.

“I did my firsts sound bath experiences with Vanessa and it has been a surprise to realise how powerful and healing this practice can be. She was able to create a secure and loving space for everyone to tune into the present moment and let the pure vibration of the bowls enter and fill the whole body, calm the mind, open the heart and nourish the spirit. Definitely a good “reset” for the awareness that it’s not alway easy to find in our daily life.”

“Thank you Vanessa for giving me this special, lovely experience of a sound bath when my baby was just 3 months old. After giving birth it was definitely time to also care about myself. Having a sound bath was the best thing that could have happened to me. I felt relaxed and fell into a deep sleep after it, exactly what I needed. Thank you Vanessa for letting me be a part of this!”

"A sound bath session with Vanessa begins ... with Vanessa herself! With the presence, attention and lightness, factors that contribute for the person to start to relax, to enter the energetic field, even before the session begins. And when it starts, the experience is multi-sensory: the ears hear, but the vibration of the sounds makes the whole body vibrate together, like in a dance. Over the course of an hour's session, thoughts come and go, an unintended snooze is among the possibilities, ideas and insights spring up, and in the end it feels like a space has been opened up within you. Everyone should try it. After all, it's very simple: just go, lie down, close your eyes and that's it, the magic happens!"
