Sound Massage

Where a sound bath surrounds you in vibration, a sound massage works directly on the body. Specially tuned instruments, often therapeutic singing bowls, are placed on or around you, so that the vibrations move through your muscles, tissues, and energy system.

This creates a grounded experience: part therapy, part meditation, part reset. Sound massage can help you feel more centred in your body, less tense, and more at ease in your mind.

What is Sound Massage?

Sound massage is a one-to-one therapy that blends the principles of sound healing with body-based awareness. Instead of being immersed in sound from a distance, the bowls are placed on specific points of the body, often aligned with the chakras, allowing the vibrations to move through your energy centres and physical tissues.

Many describe it as receiving an “inner massage” without pressure or manipulation, just resonance working with your body’s natural rhythms and energetic flow.

How it Differs from a Sound Bath?

Sound Bath: immersive, collective, hands-off, surrounding you in sound.
Sound Massage: one-to-one, body-based, vibrations placed directly on you for a more physical impact.

Both approaches aim to regulate the nervous system, support emotional balance, and restore a sense of harmony. The choice comes down to whether you prefer a collective experience or a more personal, tactile one.

Reiki & Sound Massage Integration

For those seeking a blended experience, I also offer Integrated Reiki & Sound Massage sessions. Reiki works on subtle energy flow, while the sound massage works through vibration and the physical body. Together, they create a holistic reset that addresses emotional, energetic, and somatic layers all at once.

What to Expect in a Session

You’ll remain fully clothed and be invited to get comfrotable either lyting on a soft mat on the floor for sound massage, or on a therapy bed for Reiki integrated sessions.
I’ll place tibetan singing bowls and other instruments gently on or near key chakra points and areas that hold tension.
The vibrations travel through you, helping to harmonise energy flow while releasing physical and emotional tightness.
Sessions are peaceful, intuitive, non-invasive, and always guided by your comfort and what your body needs that day.
