Experience science-backed sound therapy which calms the mind, restores bioenergy balance, and supports your wellness journey.
Santa Fe’s Premier Sonic Experience
Sound & Vibration have been used for centuries to relieve stress-related conditions as well as cultivate holistic wellness and peace of mind. I fell in love with this Himalayan healing tradition from the first moment I felt the incredible sensations of singing bowl vibrations on my body. I feel an immediate sense of calm as the bowls ‘sing.’ I find every facet of the practice fascinating: the science, acoustics, history, spirituality and mysticism. I pride myself on giving you the best experience possible and I can’t wait to share its multitude of benefits with you. -Ben Irons, CHt, CMI
The Sonic Experience
The harmonic vibrations engage your relaxation reflex, slowing down respiratory and heart rates and active brain wave states to reduce stress and create a deep sense of peace. Common physiological effects of sound & vibrational therapy include a reduced level of stress-related hormones, like cortisol; an increase of “happy hormones” like oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin; and, the synchronization of the left and right brain hemispheres for healthier brainwave patterns.
Singing bowl treatments are known to lower blood pressure and heart rate as part of the relaxation response of your parasympathetic nervous system. Studies have also shown how sound & vibration increases levels of nitric acid (NO), a vasodilator that relaxes blood vessels, lowers blood pressure, and is associated with the promotion of healing.
