The desert community is the perfect place to deeply heal yourself as you explore your spiritual side. Let’s look at the top 5 sound healers in the valley to check out for restorative sound healing!
What does a sound bath do for you?
When you sign up for a sound bath, you can expect to hear relaxing sounds from various instruments that are intended to calm and realign your mind, body and spirit. Even though it sounds like you’re getting into a pool of water, it’s not! Imagine instead that you are allowing sounds and vibrations, from instruments like crystal singing bowls, to wash over you as you lay down and relax. Significant improvements can be experienced after a sound bath, which can include:
* Improved emotional attunement
* Improved well-being and mood
* Clarity of thought, increased inspiration
* Positive, optimistic mindset
* Sense of grounding, feeling centered
* And more!
What is used in a sound bath?
A sound bath typically uses instruments like quartz singing bowls, tibetan bowls, chimes, shakers, gongs, ocean drums, rain sticks, tuning forks which emit specific frequencies, and more to create a soothing sound scape of natural frequencies. These frequencies harmonize with your energy centers, known as chakras, to help restore balance in your physical and spiritual body.
A common element seen in most sound baths are singing bowls. These bowls can be played individually, or in combination, to create a unique harmonious resonance. A mallet is slowly rimmed around the bowl (either made of crystal, quartz, or metals like tibetan bowls) until a resounding note is heard. The vibration of this sound creates a sound wave. When you participate in a sound bath, the energy inside of you will be affected by this sound wave, ultimately influencing and creating harmony with anything nearby - including you!
Each sound healer will play a unique set of their own sound healing instruments, with their own intention on how slow or fast, quiet or loud each instrument is played. Sound baths in Scottsdale can range from 30 minutes to 1 hour; they can be private sessions or group sessions. Group sound healing has become a popular form of experiencing this type of healing, as many people can relax in the same room and enjoy the sound together. Now that we understand what a sound bath is, let’s take a look at the best local sound healers!
1. NOONLIT SAGE: astrologer and sound healer in Scottsdale
If you want to experience a heightened combination of meditation and sound healing, along with astrology insights about the lunar cycles, look no further than NOONLIT SAGE’s new moon group!

The theme of each new moon sound bath changes based on which zodiac sign the new moon is in. This creates a deep theta healing state where the brain is more readily able to open itself for healing. Everyone’s favorite part is when Monica uses her ocean drum though! It adds a powerful soothing sound that mimics the rolling crashing waves of the ocean. Most people report feeling a deep gut activation in their solar plexus chakra. This powerful combination of astrology and a sound bath, when experienced every month, has the potential to set you on a much more aligned life path energetically.
