A sound bath is a unique musical performance...an immersion in sound frequency that will captivate you and leave you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. Human Activation sound frequency specialist, Robert Lee, will be playing rare Tibetan Singing Bowls, some of which are over 200 years old. It is a magical alchemy of 7-12 different metals rings in the past, present, and future for our relaxing enchantment.

Scientists found the singing bowls produced greater decreases in blood pressure and heart rate than simply silence alone.
