Your first session
Depending the kind of treatment you chose, your first Singing Bowl Session will last between 90 and 120 minutes. This is a little longer than subsequent sessions (between 60 and 90 minutes), so that we can look at the Singing Bowls and talk about their effects.
I will start by presenting you briefly the Sound Massage basics and by explaining you how the session will take place. Then, we will talk about your expectations, about what you hope to experience and about any current health issue you might have, which will allow me to adapt the session to your specific needs.

During the session
During the Sound Massage, the Peter Hess Singing Bowls are placed on and/our around your clothed body and lightly tapped with a soft mallet. Their gentle and harmonious sounds are absorbed into your whole body and each one of your cells starts vibrating, alleviating pain, dissolving blockages and tensions.
The Singing Bowls frequencies also induce a restorative “alpha” or “theta” brainwave state, similar to the state you experience just before sleeping, dreaming or during deep meditation. This promotes healing, harmonisation and profound relaxation… aiding regeneration that leads to improved health.
After the session
After the session, you will be invited, if you wish to do so, to share your feelings relating to the Sound Massage process. This helps to anchor the experience in the conscious state and can give you ideas of how you may want to approach subsequent sessions.
Immediately after the treatment, please, avoid noise, crowded places and pay particular attention if you are in traffic. Drink plenty of water, as this will aid your body to release toxins and prolong the effect of the treatment.
There is generally a three-day adjustment period after a session. Some persons might experience aches and pains. Don’t worry, all these sensations, if they occur, are normal and quick to pass. It is an indication that your body integrates the treatment and is repairing itself.
