What it is

Sound healing, in plain terms

You lie down, fully clothed, and listen. Singing bowls are played around you, and in a private session close to your body, in slow sustained tones. There is nothing to do, follow or get right. Most people describe the result as the kind of rest they have trouble reaching on their own.

The mechanism is not mysterious. Steady, low-complexity sound gives the attention one thing to settle on. Breathing slows, muscles let go, and the body gets a stretch of time out of alert mode. That shift from stress response to rest response is the whole aim of the session.

What it is not. Sound healing is a relaxation practice. It does not diagnose or treat any condition, and it sits alongside medical and psychological care, not in place of it.

Your first visit

What happens in a session

  1. A short conversationWe talk for a few minutes about what brought you in and how you have been sleeping, working and feeling.
  2. You lie down, fully clothedOn a treatment table for a private session, or on a mat in a group class. Nothing else to prepare.
  3. The sound beginsBowls are played in long, overlapping tones. Many people notice their breathing slow within the first few minutes. Some drift close to sleep. Both are fine.
  4. A slow finishThe sound tapers off and you take your time getting up. We talk briefly about what you noticed and whether another session makes sense.

Who is playing

An audio engineer's approach to sound healing

Scott brings 15 years of applied frequency work and a background as a music producer and audio engineer. That shows up in the details: which bowl follows which, how long a tone is left to decay, how loud the room gets. The instruments are chosen and placed on purpose.

He is a certified Tibetan Sound Healing Practitioner, a Holy Fire® III Reiki Master Teacher and Karuna Reiki® Master registered with the International Center for Reiki Training, and a Usui Reiki Master Teacher. He also records and releases his own meditation music, tuned to 432Hz.

Curious about that tuning? The Journal covers the science of 432Hz.

“Scott's sound healing was exactly what I needed — so grounding and soothing. You'll walk away feeling renewed.”

Questions

Sound healing FAQ

What is the difference between sound healing and a sound bath?

A sound bath is usually a group session: everyone lies down while the instruments are played for the room. A private sound healing session is one-to-one, with the bowls played close to your body and the session shaped around how you respond.

Do I need any experience?

No. Many clients are new to this and some arrive sceptical. You lie down, fully clothed, and listen. There is nothing to do or get right.

Where are sessions held?

In-person sessions and group classes are held at CalmBar, 666 Darling Street, Rozelle NSW 2039, in Sydney's Inner West. Group classes also run on Zoom, and corporate sessions come to your workplace.

How much does a session cost?

Group classes are A$39. The price of each private session is shown on the booking page before you confirm.

What should I wear or bring?

Comfortable clothes you can lie down in. Everything else is provided.

Is sound healing a medical treatment?

No. It is a relaxation practice and does not diagnose or treat any condition. It sits alongside medical and psychological care, not in place of it. If you are pregnant, have epilepsy or have an implanted medical device, talk to your doctor first and tell Scott before the session.
