To get the most out of our sound baths, we suggest people relax in a comfortable position (laying on the floor, eye mask on). Then they simply listen to the sounds and stay present with what is felt during the experience. 

“Sound bath” and “sound healing” are often used to describe a similar experience. In general, “sound bath” describes group events where a practitioner plays musical instruments for the purpose of relaxation. “Sound healing” is more often used to describe a private session using musical instruments played on or around the body. 

Gong Bath® is a trademarked term. While people often use this term in the same way they would “sound bath,” the term is owned by Richard Rudis and has been since 2008. Richard Rudis uses the term to describe his live performance and meditation events. 

All of our sound bath events are played within safe volume levels.  We periodically measure our volume to ensure this. 

We have had many pregnant women attend our events over the past 18 years.  The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health advises that pregnant women avoid routine exposure to noise louder than 115 decibels, and our sound baths are well below this level and are within a safe volume range (we measure!).  However, every pregnancy is different and we have not found much scientific research regarding sound and pregnancy. We do not place any bowls or other instruments directly on people during our events.  We recommend pregnant women consult their physician prior to attending a sound bath event with us. Once physicians clearance is obtained, pregnant women are welcome at our sound bath events. Bring an additional pillow or two so you can lay comfortable on your side (laying on the back is not safe after the first trimester).

All of our events are suitable for everyone, including those experiencing a sound bath for their first time as well as seasoned professionals. 

We suggest wearing comfortable clothes, and dressing in layers in case you get hot or cold. Wear or bring socks with you as they are required in our studio.

Yes, we do! We have sound bath events scheduled around almost every new and full moon. These ones are marked with either “new moon” or “full moon.” View the schedule here.

We provide a mat, bolster, pillow, blanket, and disposable eye mask for each attendee. We also have complementary bottled water. Dress in layers and bring or wear socks, as they are required on the carpet.

No, we do not burn incense during the sound bath.

There is a maximum of 10 participants at each event.

We require advanced registration for all of our events. We have a maximum capacity of only 10 participants and we often sell out.

Each attendee must show their ticket with QR code. We cannot allow entry without this. 

Your ticket is valid only for the date and time purchased. You are welcome to give or sell your ticket to another person if you cannot make the event you have a ticket for. We do not offer refunds or transfers to another date.

If you give your ticket to someone else please contact us HERE with the name and email of the person taking your place. They will need to sign a paper waiver at the door so make sure they arrive at least 10 minutes before the scheduled start time. 

If you, or someone in your group, can’t make it to the event you signed up for, you are welcome to give or sell your event ticket to someone else. Just let us know who is using your ticket in advance. We do not allow transfers or offer refunds if you can not make it, as space is very limited.

All public events have an age minimum of 14 years old. For private sound baths, younger age ranges may be allowed. Please check with us before booking.

For guests that cannot get down or up to/from the floor without assistance, we can set up a massage table. Please reach out BEFORE you book to discuss and ensure we will have one available.

We do not allow photos or recording (audio or video) at our venues. You are welcome to share any of our social media photos (@soundbathcenter and @the.gong.room) as long as you credit us.

Currently all of our events are purchased as single events. We do not require any type of commitment. We do occasionally offer promotions. The best place to find these is by joining our email list or following us on Instagram (@soundbathcenter or @the.gong.room).

No, we do not currently offer gift cards. The only option is to purchase a ticket for a specific event for the person you would like to gift.

We provide a mat, bolster, pillow, and disposable eye mask for each attendee. We also have bottled water available. There is no need to bring anything else.
