The hustle and bustle of modern society has exacerbated stress and anxiety. Thus, relaxation techniques such as sound therapy have become increasingly important since they have a calming impact on mental health. Acknowledging the significance of sound therapy, Colston offers intelligent sanitary ware that seamlessly combines the art and science of sound. Our products also utilise binaural beats and relaxing, ASMR-like soundscapes, which turn your bathroom into an auditory oasis. 

Let’s dive deeper into the benefits of sound therapy and discover how Colston incorporates it into their products for holistic well-being. 

The Origins of Sound Therapy 

Sound has long been regarded as a sacred instrument for healing and spiritual growth. It was even believed that the universe was brought into existence through sound. Chants and incantations were used by ancient Egyptians to cultivate consciousness and promote healing.. Similarly, to harmonize the chakras, ancient Indians employed Nada Yoga, which combined mantras, chants, and musical instruments.

The influence of sound healing also extended to traditional Chinese medicine, focusing on the deep influence of sound vibrations over the body. They used specific frequencies to restore the body’s balance and vitality.  

Some Shamanic traditions, such as those found in African cultures, believed that sounds can bring about profound healing and transformation. For emotional healing they employed chants, rattles and drums.

During wartime, music was also used to boost the morale of military men and help them cope with the stress of service. Music has always had a profound impact on emotions, from boosting productivity to alleviating stress. Whether it is audible or not, we are being affected by sound waves every second of the day.

Elements of Sound

Vibrations: Low-frequency sounds (20–100 Hz) reduce physical tension by reaching deeper tissues. Colston uses these low-frequency vibrations in their hydrotherapy bathtubs, relieving physical tension and promoting relaxation.

ASMR:  ASMR is more than a tingling feeling. It reduces stress and depression by bringing down levels of the cortisol hormone. It also enhances mood by activating the brain’s reward system, making you feel happy and even euphoric. 

While ASMR triggers vary from person to person, some are universally effective. Colston’s intelligent showers with customizable spray patterns are one of them.
