Beauty and Sound
In the beauty sector, Singing Bowls can have a wonderfully supportive effect. The holistic relaxation method of sound massage, developed by Peter Hess, has established itself in many beauty and spa facilities for decades. With the help of the sounds of the Singing Bowls, applications receive even more harmony and peace. Desired effects can be intensified, and the additional deep relaxation makes every application a little time out for the soul.
Possible uses of sound in the beauty sector
The possible uses of sound in the beauty sector are very diverse. Before an application, for example, it is a good idea to sound a Singing Bowl in the head area to loosen the facial muscles. Active ingredients can then be better absorbed by the skin. The gentle vibrations of a Singing Bowl are also ideally suited to prepare hands and feet for a reflexology massage and to loosen them up beforehand.
While a mask or body wrap is taking effect, the relaxing sounds of a Singing Bowl or a gong can help customers switch off. In this way, they also experience a small Singing Bowl meditation. In this deep relaxation, they can be completely with themselves and forget everyday life for a moment.
But Singing Bowls can also be a wonderful addition to manicure or pedicure treatments. While hands or feet bathe in warm water enriched with essential oils in an XL Singing Bowl, customers feel the gentle vibrations of the resonating bowl.

Tip
A water-sound bath has both a relaxing and invigorating effect, because the vibrations also promote blood circulation. People who often suffer from cold hands or feet particularly appreciate this effect.
Examples of possible applications:
- Loosening the muscles before facial treatments
- Getting in the mood for a reflexology massage
- Short Singing Bowl meditation during the application
- Water-sound bath during manicure or pedicure
Additional training for cosmeticians
Beauticians or wellness practitioners with additional training in the Peter Hess® Sound Methods can wonderfully combine Ayurveda, wellness, or cosmetic treatments with the soothing sounds for very special experiences. This can also be a unique selling point against the competition. If you would like to offer your customers something special or are looking for new inspiration for your own field of work, we recommend the day seminar for beauticians from the Peter Hess® Institute.
In this seminar, you will get to know Singing Bowls and elements of the Peter Hess® Sound Massage. Under expert guidance, you will gain initial experience with the Singing Bowls, learn specific sound exercises, and experience a sound relaxation in a guided partner exercise.
Special attention is paid to the possible use of the décolleté Singing Bowl. The delicate vibration of this bowl stimulates the thymus gland, which is significantly involved in building the immune system. The body's own collagen production is supported, the skin pores open, and the active ingredients of the care products can work better.

"In our day seminar, we present individual sound applications that you can individually integrate into your cosmetic treatment. What you learn can be directly implemented in practice."

Wellness and Sound
In the wellness and spa area, there are also numerous ways to enrich the offer with Singing Bowls or gongs. In addition to the classic sound massage, short sound relaxations are popular with many wellness customers, for example, for the abdominal area. You position a Singing Bowl slightly above the navel at the level of the solar plexus and gently strike it in a slow rhythm. This area reacts very sensitively to stress and tension, so the sound vibrations are often perceived as particularly beneficial here. The sounds continue in the body in even waves and loosen the entire tissue.
In wellness hotels, in addition to applications for individuals, there are also often group offers. Above all, sound and imagery journeys are very popular. Here, the participants follow a pleasant narrative voice and harmonious sounds. For private users, there are such imagery journeys also on CD.
