"Katy hosted my first ever gong bath, and it was really amazing. During the session Katy made me feel very safe and calm, which allowed me to fully relax and soak up all the effects of the gong. The experience itself was relaxing and powerful at the same time, and I felt effects such as heightened senses, bursts of happiness and clarity, and an intense connection with the world around me for 4-5 days after the session. As a beginner into the world of gong baths I have really felt the positive effects and am so grateful to Katy for introducing this into my life!
Thank you so much!"

Why the Gong?
After attending a family folk festival in 2022, I experienced my first Gong Bath — and fell in love with the feeling it left me with: lightness, calm, and a deep sense of ease. Speaking with the woman next to me afterwards, I realised I wasn’t alone in that experience.
Wanting to explore this further, and unable to find regular Gong Baths locally, I trained with Sheila Whittaker at the College of Sound Healing and later completed my year-long accreditation as a Gong Practitioner.
Now, I love bringing the essence of the gong to others — creating spaces where people can feel deeply relaxed, supported, and gently restored.
How Gong Baths Support Emotional, Physical & Spiritual Wellbeing
Gong Baths offer more than relaxation — they’re a deeply holistic experience that supports mind, body, and spirit.
Emotionally, the sound & vibrations help calm the nervous system and quieten the mental chatter. Many people leave feeling lighter, calmer, and more balanced. The soothing tones of the gong create a safe, nurturing space to release emotional tension and restore a sense of inner calm.
Physically, gong baths guide the body into a deeply restful state—similar to meditation or even deep sleep. This encourages the body’s natural healing processes, reduces physical tension, and helps lower stress-related symptoms like high blood pressure, fatigue, and muscle tightness.
Spiritually, gong baths invite a deeper connection to the self and the present moment. For some, the experience can feel expansive or meditative, offering insights or a renewed sense of clarity and peace. It’s a chance to tune inwards, reconnect, and feel supported by something greater than day-to-day worries.
Whether you're looking for a moment of rest or a deeper energetic reset, gong baths can meet you right where you are.

Reflections from group and workplace sessions
“I had no real idea what to expect from the gong bath session that Katy ran for me and a group of work colleagues – perhaps a relaxing hour with some interesting sounds. What I experienced was a synaesthetic perception of the audio in coloured visuals, which I’ve never had before. Astonishing! Came out of the session feeling very peaceful and refreshed. Thanks Katy!”
