Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is The Ark?
The Ark is a wellness chamber coated with quartz and designed to help your body relax, reset and rebalance using precision sound frequencies and measurable energy analysis.
How does a session work from start to finish?
You’ll begin with a quick scan that measures heart tension, stress levels, energy levels, biological age and more — then relax in the chamber before reviewing your results.
Where is The Ark based?
Originally one of only two in the world, The Ark is currently located in Ashton-under-Lyne. We are now opening in Manchester City Centre and Bristol, and with our franchise launch, carefully selected clinics across the UK and Ireland will soon offer The Ark too.
What does it feel like during the session?
Experiences vary — some feel a rush of energy, some feel deep relaxation, and some feel complete nothingness, which is rare in a world where switching off is almost impossible.
How will I feel after?
This shift in your energy should leave you feeling lighter, clearer, and often on a high for days — sometimes even weeks. Occasionally emotions may surface, but most of the time you’ll simply feel better.
How long does a session take?
Your time inside the chamber ranges from 35 minutes to 1 hour 15. With your consultation and post-session breakdown, your full experience will be between 60 minutes and up to 2 hours.
How safe is it?
It’s 100% safe — non-invasive, completely natural and suitable for most people.
Is it holistic or non-holistic?
It’s entirely based on you. For non-holistic users, it’s a measurable tool for stress reduction and energy improvement. For holistic users, the experience can feel deeply immersive, reflective and grounding — bringing you closer to yourself.
How does it measure my results?
Sensors assess your body's regulatory responses, energy patterns and stress levels before and after the session — and your results are also emailed to you.
What kind of results should I expect?
Around 90% of the time, levels increase across the board by 10–50%. Sometimes levels dip — this can happen when the body releases stress, stored tension or emotional load.
Who should try it?
Everyone should try it at least once — but if you’re feeling stressed, overwhelmed, fatigued, or you just know something isn’t right and you can’t explain why, then The Ark will be calling you.
Why should I try it?
To validate how you feel, reduce stress, reconnect with yourself and walk away with tangible personalised data that can guide your wellbeing journey.
How does this technology even exist?
It’s built from decades of research in nervous system regulation and biofeedback — originating in the 1950s and now finally refined into something accessible to everyone.
How many sessions will I need?
It varies based on goals and ongoing needs — but many people notice a shift after just one session and find it transforms their outlook and mindset.
Do I need to prepare before or after?
Before your session, try to avoid caffeine, alcohol and heavy or fatty foods. After your session, rest and hydration can enhance the benefits.
Is it suitable for everyone?
Most people can use The Ark, but it’s not suitable during pregnancy or for anyone with a pacemaker or implanted electrical device. If you’re unsure, we’ll guide you.
What makes The Ark different from other wellness treatments?
It represents the next generation of wellness — combining natural techniques, measurable feedback and an experience that appeals to both holistic and mainstream audiences.
Why is quartz used in The Ark?
Quartz stabilises sound and vibration inside the chamber using its natural piezoelectric properties, creating a consistent environment that supports the body’s natural regulation.
Can the body react against the quartz?
No — quartz is inert and doesn’t interact with the body biologically or chemically. It simply supports the environment during your session.
What if I don’t believe in natural therapies?
You don’t have to. The Ark isn’t based on belief — it’s based on measurable change. Your before-and-after results show how your body responded, allowing you to see the impact for yourself. Many people who were sceptical at first became believers once they saw the data.
