Bali has always been popularly known as a place of healing. And not simply because of Eat, Pray, Love, the traditional healing practice has actually been around for centuries.
Just like how humans have chakras, the earth also has one called ley lines – Bali happens to be the point where two ley lines intersect, essentially making Bali a powerful energy source. It is then harnessed by the locals to keep everything pure and balanced, becoming an ancient knowledge that gets passed down from one generation to another to help cleanse everyone who seeks healing: through yoga, acupuncture, or meditation.
However, healing isn’t only limited to those well-known methods. Beyond making use of the sense of touch, there is a hidden method people have yet to discover; that is by utilizing sound to emulate a sense of tranquility for the participants.
While it sounds simple enough, sound healing isn’t just about playing a white noise in the background. Sound healing offers a unique experience that’ll make your retreat stand out. Let’s dive deeper into sound healing in Bali: what sound healing is, the benefits of sound healing, and different types of sound healing!
More Than Just White Noise: What is Sound Healing?
While we might not be aware of it, our daily lives require us to navigate through various sound pollution every day. From car honks to the sound of machinery, being constantly exposed to such noises can actually affect our health in the long run such as having high blood pressure, speech interference, hearing loss, and sleep disruption.
So it’s only natural for people to seek retreats that offer an escape from the loud reality. It’s not necessarily about healing their sense of hearing, but more about promoting a unique relaxing experience for the participants of your upcoming retreat.
In simple terms, you can think of sound healing like music. We know that it can generally affect our mood; upbeat music keeps our energy up, while slow songs tend to build a melancholic mood.
Now if you take it apart, music is essentially just a collection of sounds being put together. So in a way, sound really can have a powerful effect on our body – if utilized correctly, it can take you on a journey that surpasses the physical plane.
Through singing bowls, crystal bowls, or gongs, sound healing in Bali makes use of the vibrations produced to slow down the brain waves as your body enter a dreamlike state. The instrument will be placed a certain way so that you can feel it resonate from within.
Taking Relaxation to Another Level: The Benefits of Sound Healing

During a sound healing treatment in Bali, the bowls or gongs will be placed close to various chakra sources on the body before it gets struck. Studies have shown that the sound vibration can penetrate into our body and affect it on a cellular level, therefore impacting the brain, nerve, muscle, and organ function.
As the body and mind sync to the vibrations of the sound, sound healing in Bali then becomes effective in healing a range of mental, emotional, and physical harm, including:
✅ Improve the energy by balancing the chakra.
✅ Greatly reduce stress level.
✅ Promote relaxation.
✅ Release any physical tension.
✅ Decrease blood pressure.
