Acoustic Effects of the Wooden Coffin

Inside the wooden coffin,
bass tones are naturally enhanced,
and treble is slightly absorbed and diffused.
As a result,
the sound feels three-dimensional, warm, and mellow
creating a unique listening experience.
There is also a subtle psychological element.
When lying down with reduced visual stimulation,
we tend to focus on the overall resonance rather than sonic details.
This creates a sense of being enveloped rather than stimulated,
making you feel the texture of sound more than its clarity.

Session times: On business days
12:00〜 / 14:00〜 / 16:00〜 18:00〜
Total time (arrival to departure): 60 minutes
Meditation time：40 minutes
Price: 8,000 yen per slot (up to 5 people)
How to book：mail please let us know the following
- Preferred date/time

How about Michael Jackson? You might want to dance in the coffin. Now that would be a real Thriller, haha!

I had them play classical music. Listening inside the coffin, I felt as if I was entering into the music itself.
