Contact Melissa — Sound Baths in Folsom & Sacramento

---

What is a sound bath?
A guided meditation followed by soothing waves of sound from crystal singing bowls, chimes, and gong. You rest (lying down or seated) while your nervous system unwinds. First-timer friendly.

Do I need experience?
Nope. Come as you are. I’ll guide you step-by-step.

What should I bring/wear?

• Wear comfy layers and socks.
   
• Bring water.
   
• Props: Some venues (yoga studios) offer mats/blankets/bolsters/eye pillows. Other spaces (like gyms/community rooms) may not—please bring whatever helps you get cozy.
   

When should I arrive?
Arrive 10–15 minutes early to settle in. Doors lock at start time to preserve the peace of the space.

Can I sit in a chair instead of lying down?
Yes. Chair set-ups are always welcome. Tell me at check-in and I’ll help you get comfy.

Is it loud?
It’s spacious and soothing—not blasting. If you’re sound-sensitive, choose a spot a bit farther from the bowls; I’m happy to help you find a good place.

Is it okay if I fall asleep?
Absolutely. Many people drift; your system still receives the benefits.

Pregnancy
Pregnant folks are welcome. Many prefer side-lying with extra bolsters. As always, listen to your body and consult your clinician if unsure.

Medical devices / conditions
If you have a pacemaker, sound sensitivity, severe tinnitus, epilepsy, or recent surgery, please check with your clinician first and let me know on arrival so we can position you comfortably.

Trauma-sensitive options
You’re in control: eyes open or closed, seated or lying down, and you’re welcome to step out at any time. Lighting and guidance stay gentle.

How do I book?
Head to Events and pick your date. Some events book through partner studios; others book directly on my site.

Refunds & transfers
Tickets are non-refundable, but you’re welcome to gift or transfer your spot to someone else.

Age guidance
Teens welcome with a guardian’s discretion. Little ones may find it hard to rest quietly—please use your judgment.

Do you teach public yoga?
Yes! Alongside soft, nurturing classes, I also teach playful vinyasa/power flow. See Weekly Schedule for times and studios.

Can beginners come?
Always. Classes are welcoming with options for every body.

Can I take photos or record?
Quiet photos before/after are okay. Please no recording during the session so everyone can fully rest.

Phones
Silence or airplane mode, please.
