Entry No. 45 — the Boston file — filed under: sound bath
Healing Haus
Tucked upstairs on glossy Newbury Street between the boutiques, this is a working ritual space running gong-and-singing-bowl sound baths, cacao ceremonies, Reiki, and past-life regression sessions — the kind of thing you'd expect in Salem, not between a shoe store and a juice bar in Back Bay.
The story
Newbury Street is where Boston comes to show off—a stretch of Victorian brownstones packed with luxury clothing boutiques, shoe stores, and cold-pressed juice bars. But if you know which doorway to open at 112 Newbury and head upstairs, the commercial noise vanishes. Healing Haus operates quietly above the high-rent sidewalk, running a dedicated ritual space that feels like it belongs in Salem rather than Back Bay.
Run by practitioner Amy around her ethos of blending 'the work and the woo,' the sanctuary offers sound baths driven by gongs and singing bowls, cacao ceremonies, Reiki energy alignments, and past-life regression sessions. While shoppers below hunt for designer wear, visitors up here lie flat on floor mats, sipping ceremonial cacao and letting low-frequency sound vibrations reset their nervous systems.
What it's like
You slip off busy Newbury Street into an upstairs studio where shoes come off and quiet takes over. For group events like the recurring New Moon Sound Bath, you lie back on a floor mat under a blanket in soft lighting while gong reverberations and bowl tones fill the room. The experience is intentionally low-intensity—you simply lie still for an hour doing nothing, then linger afterward over a warm cup of cacao. Reserve your spot online before heading over, as floor space is strictly limited.
The move: Grab a spot at one of the scheduled group sound journeys (like the recurring New Moon Sound Bath), then linger for the cacao afterward — it's intentionally low-intensity, meant for lying down and doing nothing for an hour.
