Experience the profound integration of sound vibration and body awareness.
Somatic Sound Healing combines the ancient healing power of Tibetan singing bowls with conscious awareness of your body’s physical sensations. In these personalized sessions, Alison uses carefully selected sound frequencies to create vibrations that not only surround you but are felt deeply within your tissue, nervous system, and energy centers.
Alison brings a unique blend of medical expertise and holistic training to her sound healing practice. As a registered nurse, certified yoga instructor, and Reiki Master, she understands both conventional and complementary approaches to wellness. Her training from the Atma Buti School of Sound and Vibration, combined with her background in music education, creates a deeply informed approach to sound therapy.
Alison’s experience as an End of Life Doula has taught her the profound impact that sound, presence, and intentional care can have during life’s most vulnerable moments. She empowers clients with practical techniques they can incorporate between sessions, ensuring your healing journey continues beyond the studio walls.
Sessions available at Body Positive Works in Saddle River, Bergen County, NJ.
Each session begins with a brief conversation about your current needs and intentions. You’ll then relax comfortably while Alison creates a customized soundscape using Tibetan singing bowls placed around and sometimes upon your body. Throughout the experience, she’ll offer gentle guidance to help you track internal sensations and physical responses to the sound vibrations.
The session concludes with time for integration and, if desired, discussion about your experience and simple practices to continue the benefits between sessions.
The specific frequencies used in somatic sound healing help shift your nervous system from heightened stress states into deep relaxation, creating lasting balance between activation and rest.
This gentle, non-invasive approach helps the body safely process and release stored tension patterns without requiring verbal processing or revisiting difficult memories.
Regular sessions develop your capacity to notice subtle sensations within your body, an essential skill for self-regulation and emotional wellbeing.
Experience a profound reconnection to your physical self, countering the disconnection many feel in our fast-paced, digitally-driven world.
By addressing nervous system dysregulation at its source, many clients report significantly improved sleep patterns after regular sessions.
Discover the profound healing potential when sound vibration meets conscious awareness. Somatic Sound Healing offers a gentle yet powerful pathway to release, regulation, and renewed embodiment.
Book your session with Alison Edsall today and experience the transformative power of sound and somatic awareness working together.
Comfortable, loose-fitting clothing is recommended. You’ll remain fully clothed during the session, so wear something that allows you to relax completely and move gently if guided to do so.
Absolutely! No prior experience with sound healing or somatic practices is necessary. Alison provides clear guidance throughout the session, making this accessible for everyone regardless of experience level.
While many people report feeling immediate effects after just one session, a series of 3-5 sessions often provides more lasting benefits. This allows your body to develop familiarity with the practice and establish new patterns of nervous system regulation.
Somatic Sound Healing actively engages your awareness of bodily sensations as you experience the sound vibrations. This mindful participation helps release tension patterns more effectively and develops your capacity for self-regulation between sessions.
While generally safe for most people, those with cochlear implants, certain seizure disorders, or those in the first trimester of pregnancy should consult their healthcare provider before booking. Alison can modify sessions for special circumstances, so please communicate any concerns when scheduling.

The combination of sound and somatic awareness creates powerful shifts in deeply held stress patterns.
Sound vibrations can access and release tension in areas that remain tight even after massage or other bodywork.
