Joining us, Soesen Edan, founder of Edan Sound, is a certified Sound Therapist, helping people to heal, deeply relax and rejuvenate with the power of sound.
​
Sound therapy is the therapeutic application of sound frequencies to the body and mind of a person with the intention of bringing them into a state of harmony, balance and health. It can be incredibly effective in lowering stress & anxiety, balancing blood pressure, regulating breathing and heart rate, healing chronic pain and allowing a persons body to rest, heal, reset & regenerate on a cellular level.
Soesen specialises in individual and group therapeutic sound sessions for the public and organisations, in community, private and corporate settings.
​
From wellbeing days to weekend retreats, workshops and bespoke 1-2-1 therapy, Soesen has supported thousands to heal, balance and transform.
