Crystal Bowl Sound Baths
'Sound reaches where words and medicine cannot go'
Sound healing is a gentle, non-invasive, deeply therapeutic healing modality. During a sound bath you can simply relax, rejuvenate, or go to very deep places of meditation and insight.
The frequencies, overtones of these bowls take you to a place of beauty, love and peace.
Through receiving sound you awaken your body’s innate healing abilities and you are able to de-stress your nervous system, realign on a deep, cellular level.
About Sound Baths
Testimonials
The crystal singing bowls sound bath experience for me has been extremely profound. I am able to enter deep healing states of meditation offering clearing and cleansing on the vibrational level of my being. This is accompanied by very deep states of relaxation and sometimes memories and emotions come to the surface to be processed - a transformative experience!”

“My expectation when I first went to a sound bath was to enjoy a nice meditative space within a soundscape which would deepen my experience. What happened was something a bit indescribable. I just wept for the duration as I sort of surfed the sound. The celestial quality of the bowls is movingly softened by Noémi’s voice. “

“…I always walk away feeling completely rejuvenated and nurtured. It’s had to describe….it’s like all your organs inside your body have been deeply massaged. The unique combination of voice and bowls have the ability to touch people wherever it is needed the most.”
Robyn, Argenta
“I was affirmed in the appreciation I feel for Noémi’s additional toning with the alchemical crystal bowls. It is doing so much more than just adding a lovely compliment to the bowl sounds. I feel that the vibration of the bowls and the vibration of her voice become entrainted and together they support a field of elevated resonance that is uplifting and healing for everyone receiving it.”
Donna, Nelson
Individual Sound Session
An individual sound healing session is very similar to a sound bath, but it is more personal and is tailored to your particular needs.
During an individual sound session you can access deep insight, experience different brain waves and altered states of consciousness, and you go through deep therapy without necessarily talking. Bowls can be placed on your body, where you can feel the vibrations more intensely, helping the nervous system regulate and balance itself. You may also use your own voice as your most powerful healing instrument, hum or tone with the bowls.
Group Sound Bath Session
I offer these sessions twice a month at Vitality Yoga Studio in Nelson. It's in a group setting, in a safe, nurturing environment, where you can lie down on a yoga mat, using blankets and props for comfort. I play Alchemy singing bowls and I also use my voice to take you on a journey, singing different vowel sounds to tune your energy centers.
You'll be wrapped in a blanket of sound, their harmonies reminding you of unconditional love and beauty. These sessions are very supportive for your nervous system, helping your body to come back to balance and center.
Palliative & End of Life Sessions
I have had the honour to play the Alchemy Crystal Bowls in palliative care and at assisted deaths. It is a service I believe has tremendous ability to help the people that are involved.
It brings comfort to the dying person and helps their families and friends, not to mention doctors and nurses.
Research and clinical observations suggest that hearing is often one of the last senses to fade, even when someone is unresponsive.
Using gentle, intentional sound — whether through voice, singing, or crystal bowls — can offer reassurance, presence, and calm for both the person and their loved ones. I have had the honour of supporting families during medically assisted deaths in Canada. The vibrations of crystal bowls create a sacred, peaceful space, easing the tension of doctors and nurses, helping the transition with unconditional love and respect.
Blessingway
Originally rooted in the Navajo tradition, the Blessingway ceremony honours pregnancy and the rite of passage into motherhood. Unlike a typical baby shower, which focuses on gifts for the baby, this event centers on women coming together to support the expecting mother, holding space for this sacred transition. Traditions often include rituals such as creating a necklace of beads, a foot bath, henna painting, and sharing delicious foods.
A sound bath can be a beautiful closing ritual, immersing the mother and her circle in soothing, angelic vibrations. The experience supports deep relaxation, strengthens connection and trust, and symbolically bridges the world the baby is about to enter with the one they are leaving behind. It’s a sacred space for reflection, celebration, and gentle preparation for the journey ahead.
Home Birth and Labour
Using sound during labour can be very beneficial for mom and baby. Especially at the initial early phases of labour, where mother needs to surrender to the vastness of birthing and let her body prepare.
The soothing sounds of crystal bowls can help her body to relax, reduce her anxiety and calm her nervous system. A sound bath can provide a sacred space, it can promote the release of endorphins, ease the mother's pain and help her to allow herself to immerse in the experience without fear and holding back.
Prenatal Sound Baths
I believe sound can offer a safe connection between the worlds. You and your partner can connect with your baby in this way before they’re born. I like to imagine that the sounds they hear in utero can remind them of the place they came from and help them transition into this place, making labour and birth a safer, calmer and more peaceful experience.
Sound is a beautiful, holistic modality, and your body has an innate intelligence to direct it exactly were it needs to go.
Prenatal sound bath is an experience that provides you a safe and nurturing environment where you can relax and tune into your body and your baby.
I’ll always remember the first time I played a sound bath for a pregnant mom and her family, watching her baby move and respond to the sounds. Both mom and baby seemed so peaceful and happy, there was playfulness, intimacy, mystery and joy.
If you’re an expecting mom past 12 weeks of pregnancy, or if you’re becoming a mom through surrogacy or adoption, or you are a partner of a pregnant mom, you may enjoy the benefits of sound. They are as follows:
-
Deepen your connection with your partner and baby
-
Calm your nervous system
-
Stimulate mind and body
-
Reduce anxiety
-
Relax the body before and during labour
“I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing sound baths with Noémi while I was pregnant. I’ve found I gained a new level of mind - body connection. I could tune into my baby, and it brought us both a deep sense of calm.” ~ Jenna Beaumont
