Vibroacoustic therapy (VAT) is an FDA-recognized therapy that uses low-frequency sound vibrations to promote relaxation, well-being, and healing. VAT involves lying on a comfortable specialized sound bed that is equipped with sensors/transceivers that emit low-frequency sound vibrations. These vibrations create a therapeutic effect on the body and mind.
We offer traditional, contemporary, and custom vibroacoustic therapy using specialized sound beds. Traditional VAT does not incorporate music or use headphones. Contemporary VAT does incorporate music and headphones. Custom sessions involve using any chosen audio, like ASMR or a client's personal music. Your practitioner can assist you in choosing the most effective and enjoyable session for your needs and preferences.
Vibroacoustic therapy allows the nervous system to reset itself. It has been proven to increase circulation, reduce pain, and improve mobility. It can also enhance cognition, alleviate stress and anxiety, and improve sleep quality. Almost anyone can benefit from VAT. It's especially helpful for people that would benefit from: stress management, decreased anxiety, increased circulation, improved mobility, sharper mental clarity, enhanced sleep, and metabolic increase, among others.
VAT is generally considered safe for most people. However, it is not recommended for individuals with Cochlear implants, epilepsy, acute inflammatory conditions, psychotic conditions, pregnancy, thrombosis, hypotonia, and low blood pressure.
Wear comfortable clean clothes and socks that support ease of movement. Don’t wear anything that may puncture or scratch the sound bed. Drink plenty of water before your session. VAT activates digestion and circulation, and being well-hydrated will help you feel your best. You can also think of an intention or goals you wish to achieve with your session. Common goals include stress reduction, pain management, mental clarity, relaxation, releasing the past, being fully present, and better sleep.
"I’ve been to 2 sessions now and have had excellent experiences each time. The environment is instantly calming and welcoming. I did a traditional as well as a contemporary program and both worked to relieve anxiety and physical pain, leaving me feeling grounded and refreshed even after a long day at work.
The staff go above and beyond to make sure you’re comfortable and are super knowledgeable and friendly. Will be returning."

"I attended the ribbon cutting ceremony and got a mini vibroacoustic therapy session. Those 12 minutes were sensational. I emerged from the session with the urge to cry—not because I was sad, but because I felt an emotional release that made me feel lighter and more at ease! I would recommend to anyone interested in trying a new form of therapy. :)"
