Chakana Sound Therapy

Welcome to the sound therapy realm of Chakana, where the artistry of founder and sound artist Mardi Ritchie takes centre stage. Here, sound is not an accompaniment, it is the treatment itself. This sanctuary awakens the feeling body through immersive journeys of resonance, scent and presence, complementing the tactile rituals for which Chakana is renowned.

At the heart of this collection is The Chakana Ascend – Mardi’s signature two-hour ritual combining intuitive massage with live performance of original music composed exclusively for this treatment. Alongside, we offer private sound healing journeys and soundbaths for groups, each a living soundscape designed to restore balance and awaken clarity.

Chakana’s sound therapy is contemporary healing at its highest form: intentional, compassionate, and world-class. Each session is a sonic ceremony, a rare composition performed live, dissolving heaviness and returning you to yourself. We invite you to explore our sound therapy offerings and experience the resonance for yourself.

“The body is an instrument. I tune in and feel; find the rhythm. I listen to the vibration of the
body as the voice of the soul. I harmonise with it, creating a medicinal space for healing and self-awareness.”

BOOK

The Ascend is the pinnacle of the Chakana Method, a passage designed for those standing at life’s thresholds: in grief, transition, burnout, or seeking profound renewal. More than a treatment, it is a vessel back to centre, a curated immersion where mastery of bodywork, sound and aromatic alchemy converge in ceremony.

Each Ascend is unique, shaped by conversation and intention. The journey begins with scent and subtle energy balancing, before deepening into a full sound healing, that layers Tibetan and crystal bowls, gongs, chimes and drums with acoustic guitar and live original song from the Chakana Ascend collection. These frequencies move through tissue, water and bone, softening the nervous system, quieting the mind, and restoring harmony to the whole biofield – physical, emotional, mental and spiritual.

Intuitive massage is woven through the ritual, meeting the body at the gateways where stress gathers most deeply. Guided meditation and spoken word carry what is heavy to release, while sound and touch align you to your own inner rhythm.

The Ascend embodies all pillars of the Chakana philosophy – tuning in, letting go, aligning with higher self, and holds you with reverence in times when the body and soul most need it. This is not simply treatment; it is artistry, medicine, and alchemy of the rarest kind.

BOOK FOR 60 MINS

BOOK FOR 90 MINS

A deeply personal sonic immersion, designed to restore balance and awaken presence. Within this one-on-one ceremony, crystal and Tibetan bowls, gongs, chimes and drums create layers of resonance that move through tissue, water and bone. These frequencies reach where words and touch cannot – dissolving heaviness, calming the mind, and resetting the parasympathetic nervous system.

Sound awakens the vagus nerve, softens breath and brings the heart back into rhythm. As waves of tone move through you, tension unravels, emotion is released, and the body remembers its natural harmony.

The 60-minute journey is a concentrated reset – a focused ritual that clears, balances and restores. The 90-minute journey expands into a living soundscape, led by Mardi Ritchie’s live voice and original songs woven in the moment. These frequencies of song and instrument converge to awaken the sound of creation within, leaving you luminous, centred, and deeply renewed.

Soundbath

90 mins $125 per person

Private groups of five or fewer – $155 per person

BOOK

On selected evenings, Chakana opens its doors after hours for an intimate soundbath ceremony led by founder and sound artist Mardi Ritchie. This is not simply a relaxation session – it is a rare concert of resonance, crafted live in the moment.

Voice, acoustic guitar, Tibetan and crystal bowls, gongs, drums and chimes weave together with scent and presence to create a living soundscape. Frequencies travel through tissue, water and bone, softening the nervous system, stimulating the vagus nerve, and inviting breath, mind and spirit into profound stillness.

Each gathering is ceremonial – a passage from silence into song, from heaviness into lightness. No two are ever the same, each is an intimate composition offered to those present in the room.

For couples, families or small circles wishing to book privately, please enquire with the spa team.

Ascend Music

The soundtrack to The Chakana Ascend is an original collection of songs composed and performed by founder and sound artist Mardi Ritchie. Each piece was written as the sonic counterpart to the Ascend ritual and aroma range, crafted to awaken energy centres, soften the nervous system, and evoke renewal from within.

More than music, this is a living soundscape: an intimate expression of the Chakana philosophy where scent and sound converge as ceremony. Designed not only to be heard, but to be felt, each composition becomes a companion for presence, healing, and return to self.
