Gong Sound Bath Experience*: the gong has been used for thousands of years and is being recognised as a powerful, non-invasive healing modality. The sound waves from the Gong induce a meditative state and enter into the body, affecting change at the cellular level, as well as the quantum level. Even in one session, a noticeable change can be experienced. *Contraindications: please note that sound journeys are not suitable for anyone that is pregnant or has a pacemaker.
