The Best Sound Healing Experiences in Melbourne Right Now
Melbourne is alive with vibration at sound healing experiences that strike every note, from grounding to glamorous.
Melbourne has a new obsession — and no, it’s not another artisanal pasta bar. It’s sound healing. From gongs that reverberate through your ribcage to crystal bowls that hum like the inside of a dream, these sonic baths promise to quiet the mind and reset the body’s tempo.
In a city where overstimulation is a sport, sound therapy offers the antidote: 60 minutes of surrender, wrapped in vibration. Equal parts ancient ritual and modern wellness flex, here’s where to let Melbourne’s sound healers strike the perfect note.
The Soma Experience at The Open Space
On Sundays, The Open Space in Abbotsford dissolves into a sanctuary of resonance. Here, The Soma trio — Portia Tang, Michael Green and Mat Creedon — guide a sound bath that feels at once cinematic and intimate. Tibetan bowls shimmer, clarinets sigh, a didgeridoo rumbles low, and vocals rise like mist, weaving a tapestry that cradles the body into stillness. Reclined on mats, participants drift between pulse and pause, until the city outside feels a lifetime away. At $45–55, it’s an accessible ritual with the depth of a concert, the hush of meditation, and the communal exhale of Sunday reset.

Mellow Habits
Step inside Mellow Habits, where sound becomes sanctuary. Singing bowls, crystal quartz, and breath-led pauses weave a cocoon of calm, shifting you from doing to being. In Melbourne and beyond, Zara’s sound baths and retreats invite you to slow down — to sip tea rituals, to float in forest light, to let vibration soften every edge. It’s less a class than a recalibration: part meditation, part sensory immersion, wholly unforgettable.
Trinity Curated Wellness
In South Melbourne, Trinity Curated Wellness offers a serene, design-led space where body and mind fall back into balance. The Yin & Sound class blends slow, supported postures with the resonance of crystal bowls, chimes and rain stick — a meditative practice that encourages deep release and reset. Prefer stillness? The Sound Bath invites you to recline as crystal bowls, gongs and chimes create a sonic cocoon. Both experiences calm the nervous system, ease stress and send you back into the city with renewed clarity. Restorative and quietly luxurious, they are an elegant recalibration of body and mind.

EQ’s Light-and-Sound Dome
Welcome to wellness as sci-fi theatre. At EQ, Melbourne’s newest “preventative health retreat,” you’ll step into a glowing geodesic dome where coloured light and sound frequencies pulse in synchrony to dissolve stress. It’s part of a three-hour, $199 program that also weaves in hot-cold immersion and guided meditation. The effect is futuristic — like drifting inside a sensory spacecraft — yet the outcome is startlingly grounding. Equal parts science and ceremony, EQ captures the sweet spot between biohacking and ritual, proof that Melbourne’s wellness culture can be as innovative as it is restorative.

Sound Healing in Rippon Lea’s Ballroom
On select evenings, Rippon Lea’s historic Ballroom opens its gilded doors to sound healing. Guests arrive via the serpentine drive, beneath century-old oaks, before unfurling mats in a chandeliered hall of 19th-century splendour. Certified Peter Hess practitioner Romy Paltoglou leads a 90-minute journey timed to celestial rhythms — October’s New Moon in Libra, for instance, aligning vibration with reflection, balance and renewal. Singing bowls, crystal chalices, gongs and even the estate’s own soundscape fold into a meditative immersion, resetting the nervous system as candlelight flickers overhead. At around $70, it’s among Melbourne’s most elegant and transportive wellness rituals.

Sound of Soma
At Sound of Soma, sound baths aren’t a passing fad but a practice. Founder Ange Monitto has shaped a Windsor studio into a kind of sonic gym, where crystal chalices, Himalayan bowls, gongs and flutes fold into layered vibrations. Weekly sessions invite you to roll out on mats and blankets (all provided) and surrender to the resonance, while private bookings can even bring the symphony into your living room. With classes from $49 and locals treating it as their standing reset, this is wellness with rhythm — equal parts ritual, release and a little bit rock ’n’ roll.

Sonic Harmony — Prahran
On Chapel Street, Centre of You turns sound into both spectacle and salve. One night it’s lunar sound baths — gongs, bowls, hypnotic vocals — the next, 9D Breathwork with Lee, where audio wizardry, breath and intention collide in a mind-rattling reset. Aromatic mists drift, mats unfurl, and the studio’s design-led calm feels more boutique hotel than suburban wellness hub. Sessions swing from blissfully soporific to energetically volcanic; pick your poison. Come to hush your nervous system or blast the cobwebs clean — ritual without pretension, restorative and transportive, with a distinctly Melbourne sense of style.
