Bringing Sound Therapy to Your Organisation - How It Works and What to Expect

If you're a wellbeing lead, HR manager, or team leader looking at sound therapy for your organisation, here's everything you need to know - from logistics to outcomes.

Who books us

We work with a range of organisations: corporate teams looking for a genuinely different wellbeing experience, charities and third-sector organisations supporting staff and service users, schools addressing exam stress and sensory regulation, care homes providing sensory stimulation for elderly residents, NHS settings delivering staff wellbeing or patient-facing pilot programmes, and event organisers adding a wellness element to conferences, wellness days, or away days.

The common thread is organisations that take staff wellbeing seriously and want something more effective than another webinar.

What we deliver

A typical session runs 45-60 minutes and can be held in any room with enough floor space for participants to lie on mats. We bring everything: gongs, singing bowls, chimes, yoga mats, blankets, and eye masks.

For smaller teams (up to 15), a single session works well. For larger groups, we run multiple sessions throughout the day - as we did for a travel company wellness day with over 105 attendees across several rotations.

The format is simple: a brief introduction explaining what to expect and the science behind it, then 40-50 minutes of immersive sound, followed by a gentle return. No participation required beyond lying down. No group sharing, no awkward exercises, no "tell us how you feel" circles.

What to tell your team

The most effective way to introduce sound therapy to a team is to be straightforward: "It's a science-backed relaxation technique. You lie on a mat, close your eyes, and listen to therapeutic instruments for 45 minutes. No experience needed, no beliefs required."

For sceptical teams, the science angle is crucial. Explaining vagus nerve stimulation and brainwave entrainment helps people understand they're not being asked to do anything mystical. Most sceptics become advocates after a single session.

Measurable outcomes

For organisations that need to justify wellbeing spend, we can provide pre/post stress rating surveys, attendance and participation rates, qualitative feedback collection, and session reports for your wellbeing committee.

In our experience across corporate, charity, and care settings, over 90% of participants report feeling noticeably calmer afterwards, the majority say they would attend again, and staff engagement with sound therapy sessions is typically much higher than traditional wellness offerings.

Logistics

Space: Any room where people can lie down - conference rooms, halls, large offices, outdoor spaces in summer. Setup time: 20-30 minutes. Session length: 45-60 minutes (flexible). Group size: 5-100+ (we scale equipment accordingly, or run multiple sessions). Your team needs: Nothing - just turn up in comfortable clothes. We provide: All instruments, yoga mats, blankets, eye masks. Cost: Depends on group size, location, and frequency - recurring bookings attract a discount.

Credentials

DBS checked. Registered member of the Complementary Medical Association (CMA). Public liability and professional indemnity insurance. BA (Hons) Music Performance. Trained at the British Academy of Sound Therapy (BAST). Experience across corporate, education, healthcare, and charity sectors.

Getting started

The simplest first step is a conversation. Tell us about your team, your space, and what you're trying to achieve. We'll propose a format and quote. Many organisations start with a single trial session and then move to a regular programme once they see the response.

Interested?

We would love to hear about your team, your venue, and what you are looking for.
