Take a Moment for Yourself

Through the sounds of therapeutic instruments, you can find deep relaxation and stillness. This becomes an opportunity to connect with self in meditation, or to simply rest and recharge the mind and body.

What is Sound Therapy?

Sound therapy uses soothing instruments like gongs, singing bowls, and drums to encourage a calm, relaxed state of consciousness.

In a typical relaxation session, you'll recline comfortably as sound vibrations help quiet the mind and promote deep rest. Every experience is different, but many people leave feeling balanced, clear, and rejuvenated. 

In a gong massage, you'll be seated with your back to the gong. The close proximity allows you to physically feel the vibrations across your back, similar to the release you might get from a traditional massage. The combination of sound and sensation can be deeply grounding and restorative.

How Does It Work?

Sound therapy supports the body and mind through natural physiological responses:

  • Your brain naturally begins to sync with the slow, steady rhythms of the gong or bowls. This process, called entrainment, guides brainwaves into more relaxed states like alpha or theta, which are linked to rest, creativity, and healing.

  • The instruments produce rich tones that create gentle vibrations throughout the body. This resonance can stimulate tissues and energy pathways, helping release tension and restore a sense of balance.

  • The calming sound vibrations activate the parasympathetic nervous system (your body’s "rest and digest" mode), slowing the heart rate, lowering blood pressure, and supporting digestion, all of which contribute to a state of deep relaxation. When activated, it shifts the body away from the fight-or-flight response triggered by stress, allowing the body to repair and recover.

  • Sound can also help regulate the vagus nerve, which plays a key role in emotional regulation and feeling safe in the body. This helps shift the nervous system out of stress and into a state of calm and connection.

  • "Elise is gifted with creating the most beautiful and impactful sounds and energies, intuitively generating an experience that is as soothing as it is energising. I felt so supported and encouraged to be fully open and receptive to the potential of sound therapy. Thank you!"

  • "Elise facilitated such a sensitive, respectful, and supportive space and experience during each session. I felt incredibly comfortable and respected by her guidance which enabled me to make the most of the sound therapy experience. She allowed me to speak freely and afforded me the time and freedom to experience sound therapy in a way best suited to my needs rather than manipulating the session. I am hugely grateful to Elise for the experience, her support, sensitivity and the benefits I have gained."

  • "Elise has a very gentle approach to sound healing. She takes the time to really listen and applies the appropriate technique according to your needs."

  • "Elise is a very patient and compassionate practitioner and I will definitely be having more sessions!"

  • "I felt very welcomed at Elise’s place, she is in general a very warm and generous person. Elise seems to be genuinely interested in my person and the issues I might bring and it made me feel held and understood."

About Elise

In a world full of noise and distraction, finding moments of calm and focus matters. I’m a trained sound therapist and meditation facilitator, interested in the many ways in which sound and meditation can support physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing.

My formal training in sound started with The British Academy of Sound Therapy (BAST) at the beginning of 2020. Through my training as a Sound Therapy Practitioner with BAST, I learnt how to use their method to facilitate one-to-one sessions, playing the gong, Himalayan singing bowls, or drum, as well as assisting clients in a self-reflective process. To complement my training in sound, I have also completed Meditation Teacher Training (50 hours) with Registered Yoga School, Arhanta Yoga.
