Private Sound Bath Melbourne
Have the studio to yourself
Private sound baths for two, three, four, or a group of up to twenty. Book a time directly, we hold the room, everyone just lies down.
Perfect for
Better than dinner and drinks
A private sound bath in Melbourne works for almost any occasion where you want people to feel something rather than just show up.
No experience needed for anyone in your group. Nobody has to be flexible, spiritual, or good at meditating. Everybody just lies down.
Book direct
Choose your session
Four ways to book the studio privately. Every one is a full sixty-minute sound bath in our Windsor room, with everything provided. Pick your size, pick your time, and it is locked in.
2For two
$300A sound bath for you and one other person. Couples, a parent and child, or a friend you have been meaning to do something proper with. Tibetan and crystal bowls played around and rested on the body, with bowls placed on each of you in turn.
3For three
$380The same session held for three. Small enough that everyone still gets individual attention with the bowls, and everyone leaves having actually had the experience rather than watched it happen to a room.
4For four
$420Four people, one hour, the whole studio. The most popular of the small groups, and the easiest way to give a few people something they will remember longer than dinner.
5+For your group
$480+The Transformative Journey. A full private sound bath for a larger group, built with a digital looper and mixer so live-recorded layers of sound build through the session while instruments are placed on and around each person in turn.

What it is
What actually happens in a private sound bath
A sound bath is a guided sound meditation you lie down for. Nobody chants, nobody stretches, and nobody sits cross-legged trying to empty their mind. You lie on a mat under a blanket with your eyes closed, and we do the rest.
Crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, chimes and voice are played around the room and, at points, rested directly on the body, so you do not just hear the sound, you feel it moving through you. The tones slow your brainwaves down and pull your nervous system out of fight-or-flight into the deep-rest state where the body actually repairs itself.
Private means the studio is closed to everyone else. No strangers on the mat next to you, no fixed timetable, and the session shaped around your group and your occasion. For the smaller sessions everybody gets individual time with the bowls placed on them.
Most people come out soft, quiet and a little disoriented in the best way. Sleep that night is usually the deepest they have had in weeks. It is the reason private sound baths have become one of the more popular things to book in Melbourne for a group that wants to do something other than eat and drink.
How it works
Your private session
- Pick your size and your time. Choose two, three, four or a group of five to twenty, then book a time directly below. It takes about a minute.
- We set the room for you. Mats, bolsters, blankets and cushions laid out, the lighting set, the studio closed to everyone else. Everything is provided, your people just arrive.
- Everyone lies down. A full sound bath held for your group. Tibetan and crystal bowls, chimes and layered live sound, with bowls placed on the body one person at a time. Nothing is asked of anyone.
- You leave together. People come out of it soft, quiet and genuinely connected, which is a very different way to spend an hour with the people you care about.
The room
Step inside
For teams
Workplace wellness, brought to you
Book the studio for your team, or we pack the bowls and come to your office. Workplace sound healing works because it asks nothing of anyone: no activewear, no participation, no sharing in a circle. People lie down on the floor of a meeting room for an hour and leave genuinely reset.
Good for burnt-out teams, end-of-quarter, offsites, wellness weeks, and companies who would rather do something their people actually remember.
Questions
Everything people ask us
Is this a good hens party idea?
It is one of the most booked. If you want a classy hens party idea in Melbourne that is not a bar crawl or a cooking class, the bride and her people get the studio for an hour, everyone lies down together, and the mood for the rest of the day or night is completely different. Plenty of groups do the sound bath first and go on to lunch or drinks afterwards. It works for hens nights, hens days and as the opening session of a hens weekend.
Can I give this as a gift?
Yes, and it is one of the better ones. The session for two is popular for anniversaries, birthdays, Mother's Day and Father's Day. Book a time directly, or send us a message and we will sort out a gift voucher instead so they can pick their own date.
How many people can come?
Two, three or four for the small private sessions, and five to twenty for a full private sound bath. Larger than twenty, get in touch and we will work something out.
How long does it run?
Sixty minutes for all of them. Allow a little extra either side so nobody is rushing in or straight back out.
Does anyone need experience?
No. Nobody has to be flexible, spiritual or good at meditating. Everyone lies down under a blanket and the sound does the work.
What is provided?
Mats, bolsters, blankets, cushions and every instrument. Guests bring warm clothes, because your body temperature drops as you settle, and a water bottle.
Can you come to us instead?
Yes, for workplaces and offsites. Have a look at workplace sound healing, or send us a message with the location and group size.
What if no time suits us?
Text 0489 089 049 or email info@soundofsoma.com.au and we will open one for you. We add extra times regularly, evenings and weekends included.
