A unique relaxation experience which allows people to float on water while listening to soothing sounds is returning to a Wrexham leisure centre this week.
The Floating Sound Sanctuary is hosting another of its floating sound bath sessions at Chirk Leisure & Activity Centre on Friday, November 6, at 9.30am, and Saturday, November 7, at 3.30pm.
The experience, known as The Border Float, sees participants lie on comfortable floating air beds in a heated indoor swimming pool while listening to crystal singing bowls, gongs and other instruments played by sound practitioners.
Organisers say the sessions offer an opportunity for people to take a break from their busy routines and enjoy a peaceful environment.
Unlike a traditional sound bath, where participants usually lie on mats, the experience combines sound with the gentle movement of water.
No swimming ability, swimwear or previous experience is required, with guests remaining fully clothed throughout.
Floating beds, blankets and eye masks are provided, allowing participants to get comfortable while listening to the sounds around them.
Announcing the upcoming session, The Floating Sound Sanctuary said: “Imagine starting your Friday morning like this.
“A peaceful pool, beautiful healing sounds and where the outside world can simply wait.
“Float effortlessly on water while being surrounded by the soothing sounds of crystal singing bowls and other beautiful instruments.
“No swimming or swimwear required. Simply arrive in comfortable clothing, get cosy and allow yourself to completely switch off.
“Whether you’re joining us alone or bringing someone special, we’d love to welcome you.”
The Floating Sound Sanctuary hosts floating sound baths at venues across the UK, including swimming pools, spas and leisure centres.
Its team of sound practitioners use a variety of instruments to create a calming atmosphere, with sessions designed to give participants time to unwind.
Chirk Leisure and Activity Centre, on Chapel Lane, is one of the organisation’s regular venues, with both morning and weekend experiences taking place.

The sessions have already received positive feedback from people who have attended in Chirk.
One participant, Julie Howell, said: “This isn’t something that I have done before, so I was quite anxious about what happened, but oh my goodness what an amazing experience, relaxing on the water and just being able to lose yourself, surrounded by beautiful sounds.”
Another attendee, Janet Morris, described the experience as “absolutely amazing”, adding that she would be returning.
