Music from our double-equalized, extended range sound system envelopes you in our comfortable futon recliner lounge chair creating a personal multi-sensual experience for you. Music volume level is limited to no more than 85 dBA to produce vibrations that affect your inner and outer being, without hurting your ears. Music that is primarily rhythmic affects the physical body; music which is essentially melodic deals with the emotions; and the harmonics of music relate to the spiritual energies. Pick your voyage from our selection of music therapy CDs, including the following:

Orchestral Feng Shui music series is based on the theories of the Yi Ching and the five Chinese tones to generate productive qi (chi) circulation. Dragon music, from the east, is the wood element which represents sprouting and the spread of growth. Phoenix music, from the south, is lively and relaxing, associated with fire, and signifies passion and intuition. Serpent music, from the center, is the earth element, representing mountains and symbolizing stability. Tiger music, from the west, is the metal element which has the forceful and energizing characteristics of cleanliness, integrity, and strength. Tortoise music, from the north, is the water element which possesses the soothing and tender qualities of flexibility and resourcefulness.

Native American Spiritual music can be a map for creating and experiencing ritual in one's life. "Ritual" not in the sense of daily, mundane and thoughtless tasks, but in the sense of conscious, formalized actions. Rituals make use of the same stuff that dreams are made of -- symbolism, fantasy, myths, and metaphors -- they address themselves to a primitive and profound level of experience.

New Age Transformative music can allow the layers of stress and protection to fall away, to remove yourself from the numbing pace of our society and the sensationalism of the media. The music resonates your chakras (seven subtle etheric energy centers) creating an experience of inner peace and harmony. This is music that breathes, rests, and breathes again... and invites you to do the same while meditating inward into yourself.

Space music has a sense of expansiveness, majestic and heartfelt compassion, and striking, all-embracing reverence. Expand your meditation outside the self, out to the universe.

World music, from classical to folk, with beats, rhythms, and sounds from cultures around the world.

Colored lights pulsate on you and in the space around you with a balanced response to the different audio tones in the music: red for the low frequencies, yellow for low-mid frequencies, green for the hi-mid frequencies, and blue for the high frequencies.

These primary colors blend to produce all the colors of the rainbow. The electromagnetic vibrations of color, like sound, can affect and recharge each cell of your body, not just your eyes and ears.

Aroma and its effect on the limbic* part of your brain is only a part of the therapeutic power of essential oils. These plant essences have a gentle ability to enhance mood and lift depression as well as benefit a person physically and emotionally -- mind, body, and spirit. When inhaled, oils produce psychological effects that can relax or stimulate, soothe or inspire, heal, center, and balance you.

Aroma therapy can help respiration, clear the mind, feel euphoria, boost confidence, reduce headache, balance the emotions, and anti-depression. Aroma compliments the audio and visual stimulation that you receive.

* The limbic system is involved particularly with the sense of smell and with certain complex emotional responses, but it also plays a role in regulating basic body functions.

Through years of reading and research, we have combined 3 alternative natural health therapies -- music, color, and aroma -- into one multi-sensual experience. Funding is required to set up either a freestanding building or a facility within an existing spa, resort, or hotel. We are looking for $250,000 US start up capital and $250,000 US working capital. Depending on available space and funds, there may be many sound proofed rooms, with quiet HVAC systems (similar to a music recording or practice studio), operating at the same time with 2 or more employees on duty. Our trained Spa personnel will work with the prospective clients to find a type of music and aroma that will work best for them.

Each session lasts from 45 to 75 minutes, depending on the music chosen. There would be approximately 15 to 30 minutes of client meeting and room prep per session. Expected pricing is $75 US per session, but may vary, depending on location, public acceptance, and potential competition. Las Vegas NV USA is an ideal location with about 1.5 million residents and over 35 million tourists every year needing stress relief. Other locations with a large local or tourist base and an interest in alternative health care would also be good. Sedona AZ and Santa Fe NM USA would be our favorite second choices. In the future, when successful, DeStress Spa may be expanded, franchised, sold to a larger organization, or taken public.

Contact Roy or Farrah if you have any questions, or to make an appointment for a meeting with MCA practitioner Mr. Roy Al Rendahl, a visual artist, musician, and audio engineer. Schedule your session, usually from 45 to 75 minutes depending on the music chosen, at the cost of $75 per session. Evening and weekend appointments are available.

Please Note: The healing sound and light vibrations, and scents in the air, all affect the body and subconscious mind even while sleeping. So, if during your session, you should happen to fall asleep, we will gently wake you when the program is over. You will have had a very rejuvenating, renewing, and healthy nap.

Important Note: DeStress Spa - music, color, & aroma relaxation & stress relief is not a substitute for medical diagnoses or treatments. Please consult your physician or practitioner if you are experiencing any medical problems.
