ABOUT THE SONOSPHERE
Dive Deeper into sound & MUSIC
The Sonosphere is an immersive sound experience and powerful haptic sound massage with over 20 years in the making. It's a next-level vibroacoustic therapy device comprised of a sphere-shaped acoustic flux field. The Sonosphere is for experiencing the full-body effect of resonance using cymatic principles to set up standing waves in the human body.
The powerful therapeutic effects of resonance on the human body have been well cited in clinical studies. The Sonosphere can be incredibly relaxing- as well as entertaining, but it can also serve as a powerful tool to aid in many different healing processes*.
The Sonosphere ExperieNce
• Induces standing waves in the human body and holds up to 1000 lbs. of weight.
• Quickly delivers a deep feeling of relaxation and subtle euphoria, encouraging the body to release tension
• Is the first of it's kind in being BOTH therapeutic AND entertaining/recreational
• Uses tactile haptics (cymatic system) as well as a 12.1 3D surround sound (ambisonic system). How it Works >
WHat's A SONO
Session Like?
• A fully immersive interactive installation art environment. The room has been darkened into a galaxy with moving, glowing stars.
• Receive a custom mixed sound session where we tune the haptic system in the Sonosphere with your weight added, and create multiple custom resonance chords.
• We layer these chords with relaxing & magical soundscape music that we've curated for this purpose. However, you are welcome to bring your own music on a flash-drive, if you prefer.
• The sound platform is a hard, flat surface. It includes squishy silicone body pads that provide comfort and transmit vibration. Usual padding like pillows and blankets would cause dampening, by absorbing sound waves. If desired, we do provide weighted blankets, warming pads and knee bolsters. We sanitize the Sonosphere after every session.
• The Sonosphere is a powerful piece of hardware, capable of producing a very strong acoustic flux field at high decibel. We start the session volume out softly and slowly work up to the top volume you can comfortably stand. The more volume you can handle, the more deeply the vibration can enter your body. We can accommodate any level of sensitivity.
• The Sonosphere can hold one or two people at a time. Two people are allowed in the 60 and 90 min sessions. Inside the Sonosphere, laying down in supine position is the recommended way to ride the but we also encourage you to stretch, sit up, and move around as you need. There is a slightly different auditory experience sitting up vs laying down. You will hear doppler and overtone harmonics either way.
DISCLAIMER
The Sonosphere is not a medical device. It has not been evaluated by the FDA, nor is it intended to cure or treat any disease. People with the following conditions should not ride the Sonosphere:
• Heart issues or pace-makers
• Anemia or history of blood clots
• Regular/intermittent seizures or epilepsy
• Recently broken bones
• People who are pregnant
• Those who have been drinking alcohol in the last 24 hrs
Additionally,
• Those with a history of nausea or vertigo should experience the Sonosphere with the sphere STILL.
The Sonosphere is known to activate or increase movement in the digestive system, the lymphatic system and the circulation system. If you have a pre-existing condition in the digestive, lymphatic or circulation system, please check with your doctor first before participating in Sonosphere Vibroacoustic Therapy.
The Sonosphere can also trigger the somatic release of emotion- we've created a safe space for that- and though it may not happen for everyone, it should be expected as a common effect.
The unique nature of the Sonosphere project is experimental, and there are no current studies about it's short/long term effects at this time. Your participation is voluntary, your risk of injury or death is 100% your choice, and your consent with release of liability is required.
