Best Sound Healing Instruments to Buy (Types, Prices, Where to Shop)

Sound healing instruments transform vibration into calm—helping you reset your mind, body, and energy. Whether you’re building a home meditation space or expanding a wellness practice, choosing the right tools can make all the difference.

1. Singing Bowls (Metal & Crystal)

Tibetan metal bowls produce deep, grounding tones, while quartz crystal bowls create higher, more ethereal vibrations. Both are ideal for meditation and chakra balancing. Prices range from £20–£200, depending on size and quality.

2. Tuning Forks

Tuning forks deliver precise frequencies, often used near the body to promote relaxation and energetic balance. Sets tuned to 432 Hz or 528 Hz are popular among healers. Expect to pay £15–£100 per fork, or invest in a complete frequency kit.

3. Gongs

A gong session can release tension and induce deep meditative states through powerful resonance. Handcrafted gongs start around £150, but larger ceremonial pieces can exceed £1,000.

4. Drums and Shakers

Frame drums, ocean drums, and seed shakers bring rhythm to sound healing. Their steady beat helps with grounding and focus—perfect for group sessions or movement-based meditation. Prices typically range from £30–£200.

5. Chimes and Wind Instruments

Chimes, flutes, and panpipes create delicate melodies that calm the mind and uplift energy. Handmade bamboo or wooden versions offer natural warmth and tone, starting around £20.

6. Rainsticks and Harps

Rainsticks mimic the soothing sound of rainfall—excellent for relaxation or sleep meditations—while small harps bring angelic tones ideal for emotional release. Expect prices between £25–£300.
