A real bowl, hand-finished. Not a speaker, not a recording.

The quiet you keep chasing

You don't need another screen to calm down.

You already know the feeling: a mind that won't power off, a room that hums with notifications, a nightstand full of apps that ask you to do more when you have nothing left. Real calm was never information. It's a change in the air around you.

Apps add to the noise

Another glowing rectangle, another login, another thing to charge. The nervous system doesn't relax to a to-do list.

Speakers only imitate

A recording of a bowl is a photograph of a fire. Pleasant — but your body can tell the difference between playback and a room that's actually resonating.

A real bowl needs a player

Singing bowls are beautiful, and impossible to keep going for a whole savasana, a whole wind-down, a whole night. So they sit on the shelf.

Effortless by design

Like a record player — but for singing bowls.

iOhm gently rotates a real brass bowl while a motorized mallet keeps it singing, with the subtle, uneven pressure of a human hand. Turn one dial, and the room fills.

1

Set it on any table
Nightstand, altar, studio floor, therapy room. It's a beautiful object at rest and mesmerizing in motion.
2

Turn the dial
One knob takes you from a barely-there whisper to a full, room-filling sound bath. That's the entire interface.
3

Let the room change
Continuous, living resonance — for as long as you like. No fade-outs, no loops, no phone in your hand.

Engineered to feel unengineered

The world's first hands-free singing bowl.

Real resonance

A real bowl, singing on its own.

The bowl is real hand-finished brass, mounted on a hushed belt-drive turntable. What you hear is genuine acoustic resonance — the same physical vibration a sound healer coaxes from a bowl by hand, sustained indefinitely.

Living overtones that shift and breathe — never a seamless loop
Fills a bedroom, a studio, or a treatment room

The Smart Mallet

A motor that plays like a hand, not a machine.

Constant pressure makes a bowl sound dead and mechanical. So iOhm's mallet arm uses dynamic torque — a gentle, ever-varying pulse tuned to mimic the imperfection of human touch. The result is warm and alive, with none of the scrape or drone of a machine.

Dual-motor coordination between platter and mallet
Micro-variation keeps the tone human and never harsh

One dial

The whole interface is a single knob.

No pairing. No firmware update at bedtime. No account. One dial adjusts both volume and intensity together, so anyone in the house — kids, guests, grandparents — can use it on the first try, in the dark, half-asleep.

Whisper-quiet motors — you hear the bowl, not the mechanism
Belt-drive transmission for smooth, steady rotation

Made to be kept

Solid wood, brass, and adjustable legs.

A CNC-turned hardwood base with a low, tip-resistant center of gravity. The bowl cradle sits on adjustable legs, so you can swap in a larger bowl — or your own treasured one — as your practice grows.

Walnut or natural ash base, oil-finished by hand
Fits most 5"–7" bowls; play the one you already love

The science of sound

Untangle your brain.

Sound is not only heard — it is felt. A real bowl sets the air, and the body, gently vibrating. Here is what research is beginning to understand about how these living frequencies move through us — and where we stay honest about what's still early.

01 · Physics

Vibration becomes a field

A struck bowl radiates real acoustic pressure waves — measurable vibration that fills a room, not a sample pushed through a speaker.

02 · Biology

Your cells feel sound

Through mechanotransduction, cell membranes and ion channels turn mechanical force into biological signal, with calcium acting as a key messenger.

03 · Physiology

The system downshifts

In a pilot trial, low-frequency vibration paired with music improved heart-rate-variability markers linked to "rest and digest" (parasympathetic) activity.

04 · Experience

A quieter mind

Slow, steady, continuous sound gives restless attention something soft to rest on — the felt sense of a nervous system easing down.

Heart-rate variability

Research associates calming, resonant sound with shifts toward parasympathetic ("rest") activity — the branch of the nervous system tied to recovery and calm.

Slower breath & heart rate

A predictable, low, continuous tone is a classic cue for the body's relaxation response — the easing of breath and pulse we reach for before sleep or stillness.

Attention that unclenches

With one steady thing to follow, the mind stops bracing. No technique to master — the room changes first, and your state is invited to follow.

We don't sell magic frequencies.

iOhm is made to support a calmer environment and a ritual you can repeat — not to diagnose, treat, or cure anything. The research below is mechanistic and early-stage, and we'll always tell you the difference.

It replaced my phone at bedtime

"I turn one dial and the whole room changes. I stopped scrolling myself to sleep — now I just listen until I drift off. It sounds nothing like a speaker."

Maya R. · Verified owner

★★★★★

My students think I hired a sound healer

"I set it going before savasana and stay fully present with the room instead of playing a bowl. The tone is warm and alive — it breathes. Worth every penny for my studio."

Devon K. · Yoga teacher

★★★★★

Beautiful enough to leave out

"Most wellness gadgets are ugly plastic. This is brass and walnut — it looks like an heirloom on the console table, and then it sings. Guests always ask about it."

Good questions

Everything you're wondering.

An actual bowl. iOhm physically plays a real hand-finished brass singing bowl — a motorized mallet keeps it resonating while the base slowly rotates. There is no speaker and no recording. What you hear is genuine acoustic sound filling the room.

You're in control. The single dial takes it from a barely-there hum you can fall asleep to, all the way up to a full room-filling sound bath. Most people run it low at night and higher for meditation or a studio class.

No. iOhm was deliberately designed without a screen. There's nothing to pair, no account to create, and no update to install. You turn one dial. That's the whole thing.

In most cases, yes. The cradle sits on adjustable legs sized for most 5"–7" bowls, so you can play the bowl you already own or grow into a larger one over time. The included brass bowl is tuned to sound its best on the iOhm base.

It's engineered to disappear. iOhm uses quiet motors on a smooth belt-drive so the mechanism stays in the background — you hear the bowl, not the machine.

Return it within 60 nights for a full refund, shipping included. There's no risk in trying it in your own space — that's the whole point of the trial.
