Cate Ritter sound therapy practitioner

Sound Therapy

Sound and vibration offer a powerful way to calm your nervous system, shift perspective, and explore what’s keeping you stuck—physically, emotionally, and energetically.

Sound therapy invites you to slow down, listen, and go inward. As you receive sound and feel vibration move through you, you can experience a deeper sense of relaxation, grounding, and presence.

As a certified Biofield Tuning® and Vibrational Sound® Therapy Practitioner, Cate Ritter uses these somatic modalities to bring your system into greater alignment:

Biofield Tuning® uses tuning forks in your biofield and on your body. The forks listen to energy, clear blockages, and create space for your system to flow.

Vibrational Sound® uses Zen therapeutic singing bowls on you and in your energy field. The bowls speak a language your body remembers, allowing gentle vibrations to move through you.

Available in person in Bend, Oregon, and online.

Sound & vibration speak the language of your soul, inviting your body to listen, relax & return to its natural harmony.

What to Expect From Sound Therapy

Sound Therapy invites you to simply receive the experience—there’s nothing you need to force, figure out, or make happen.

Prepare

Before your session, arrive hydrated, wear comfortable clothing, and avoid eating a heavy meal right beforehand. Let Cate know about any preferences or injuries so your session can be adjusted as needed.

Experience

During your session, you’ll remain clothed and lie comfortably on a massage table while therapeutic sound instruments are used on and around your body. Like a needle on a record, the instruments listen to and broadcast the vibrational language of your body, allowing your system to naturally move toward greater harmony. You may feel deeply relaxed, emotional, peaceful, lighter, clearer, or more present

Integrate

After your session, give yourself space to rest, hydrate, journal, or take a gentle walk. Prioritize self-care and grounding activities as shifts continue to unfold. Stay curious about what you notice in your body, emotions, and perspective.

    Profound Results

    "I'm beyond grateful for Cate! She's a beautiful and highly gifted sound therapy practitioner. I received a profound session from her that transmuted and balanced my energy field with very tangible results.

    I could feel residual energies from childhood and ancestral traumas leaving as she cleared these fields.

    The day after my session, I was exhausted and knew my body needed downtime to process the energetic shifts. I got the message to slow down and not fall back into an old habit of overdoing. After a day of self-care and relaxation, I've felt renewed and rejuvenated ever since!

    I recommend Cate for any of your healing desires and life goals. She’s truly a gift to humanity.”

    — Ginny M. from Pacific Grove, CA

    Huge Release

    “Wow, my Biofield Tuning experience was intense! Cate picked up on a few traumatic times in my life (to the year) that were still disrupting my biofield.

    The tuning process felt like a huge emotional and physical release. Like a weight I had been carrying for years came out of the depths and poured out of me. Every molecule in my body was vibrating. It was the first time I felt like I was not a solid being.

    Immediately after, I felt calm, relaxed and exhausted. In the following days I've felt more calm, stable, and resilient to the stressors in my turbulent life.

    I’m grateful for all of the transformative subconscious and sound therapy work Cate has done with me.”

    — Kate M. from Sisters, Oregon

    Heavy Weight Lifted!

    “I really enjoyed my Biofield Tuning session with Cate. I’ve never experienced anything quite like it. The process was very interesting and comfortable. I felt good after the session, calm and relaxed.

    I was surprised at how accurate the forks were at finding blocks within my field as it related to different events in my life. It felt like some heavy weight had been lifted from me. 

    A few hours later, I had some much needed digestive shifts. I slept well that night, and then the next morning I felt a lot of emotions come up. Tears were flowing in a very cleansing way.

    After the sound therapy session, I was able to feel things and let them move through. Many stuck emotions were released. Now I feel great!”

    Regulating & Healing

    "I love Biofield Tuning with Cate! Something about the vibration of the tuning forks communicating with my body, bypassing my thoughts, feels so healing.

    I love how I can hear AND feel the tuning forks. It felt like a conversation that didn't need words.

    During my remote session, I could really feel the effects even though I wasn’t in person. Sound therapy is now my preferred means for healing. The vibrational energy feels like it goes directly to the source. It gives the body the space and freedom to rebalance.

    Although Cate is an incredible healer in whatever modality she’s using, there’s something special about tuning. She’s thorough and her intuitive abilities are extra heightened."

    Joyful & Heart Healing

    “From the moment I met Cate, I could feel her passion and enthusiasm for guiding others into a space of healing.

    She took me through a journey to my inner child and communicated with me in a motivating and compassionate way. The joy I felt during the session really touched my inner child and heart. 

    I love her spark for life and how she approaches everything with curiosity. I knew right away that she would make this modality her own and create something extraordinary.

    Cate is a beautiful, kind, and compassionate soul. We all need someone like her on our journey to healing and self-discovery.”

    Amazing Release

    "Before Cate started, I felt her love and warmth. Throughout the session, she was fully attentive and supportive.

    Her ability to sense what I needed was phenomenal. As she moved through my field, she could find stuck areas and let herself be guided by this deep sensing to bring coherence. 

    I felt the most AMAZING release. It felt like I was floating in a warm, calm pool — gently rolling and rocking as she used her forks. It was the most splendid experience.

    I felt peaceful, soothed, and relaxed. While floating on something so divinely soft, I felt grounded and present, not out of my body. My body felt like it was floating, yet I was very safe."

    — Tamara from Alonnisos Island, Greece

    Above & Beyond

    “My Tuning experience with Cate was truly wonderful.

    She puts her heart and soul into her work and she went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable throughout the experience.

    Cate has a gift for guiding you back into your heart space by making you feel safe and at ease in her presence.

    I left feeling much lighter and more balanced mentally and physically. I was able to release emotional blockages that had been weighing me down and Cate helped me to identify the source of where they came from.

    She has a beautiful, nurturing presence and I am beyond grateful to her for helping me along my healing journey.”

    Energized & Alive

    “Hello, Cate! OMG, it has been a wild ride since our Biofield Tuning session. I popped out of bed the following morning feeling more energized and ALIVE than ever. It was incredible! Lots of insights and aha moments have been flowing through.

    I’ve been letting go of things (material items, patterns, habits, beliefs, and a trip I didn’t want to take), addressing areas and relationships that needed adjusting. My husband and I are pursuing our dreams now instead of waiting. I attribute all of these developments to our session. 

    It was like a fire was lit inside me! The sessions have felt otherworldly, incredible, and a huge sigh of relief all in one! Thanks, Cate! Working with you is so much fun!”

    Energized & Lighter

    “Being in Cate's presence is a gift. Every time I'm with her, I feel like it's truly MY time. As a woman, healer, wife, mother, and daughter, that matters more than I can say.

    During my session I felt deeply relaxed. As Cate moved the different instruments around my body, I drifted somewhere else entirely. The next day I woke up feeling energized and light.

    If you could use some time, space, and attention, and the experience of being truly witnessed, go see Cate. Everything feels so easy with her.”

    Above & Beyond

    “My first Biofield Tuning experience was EXCELLENT! Cate’s tuning felt so graceful and attuned; impactful on a level that’s hard to articulate.

    I arrived with pain in my chest and upper back, and as the session progressed, grief and sadness became apparent.

    Cate recommended paying attention to my dreams and I dreamt of a particular situation I was holding onto.

    After integration, I felt a HUGE weight lift and clarity of mind.”

    I felt so good afterwards, like invisible blankets were lifted off of me, giving me a sense of freedom as well as inner trust.

    Her breadth of experience is immense and you can feel that her heart is aligned with a pure intention to be of service to the healing process.”

    Unburdened & Lighter

    "I didn't know what to expect with Biofield Tuning as I'd never tried anything like it. Even though I wasn't in person, I still felt sensations in my body as Cate worked in different areas.

    I loved how nourishing it felt that I could sense and feel things as she used the tuning forks. It was a beautiful and deeply relaxing experience.

    The most surprising thing was how changes unfolded. Many things began to click in place as old patterns dissolved. I feel unburdened and lighter now."

    The world intrudes as it always does, but I can remain aware and cope much better with all the noise!”

    Incredible Experience

    “I’ve done other work with Cate so I felt comfortable trying sound therapy. I had never heard of tuning your biofield so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but OMG it’s the most incredible experience!

    I was surprised at how helpful it’s been with unearthing emotions, trauma, and more. I felt very relaxed and feel shifts continue as I know a lot of stuff was and is being released.

    It's a MUST if you are feeling stuck and not sure how to proceed. This modality is a game-changer!”

    Inner Connection

    “I’ve felt an incredible sense of inner connection since my in-person Biofield Tuning session with Cate — the kind I typically only reach in deep meditation.

    I slept well and felt deeply relaxed. I have been hearing and feeling the resonance from the session. It feels like a memory, but more experiential.

    I am very grateful for the work she did. It’s had a significant positive impact on my life.”

    Incredibly Relaxing

    “My Vibrational Sound Therapy session was incredibly relaxing, like receiving a wonderful massage, but through sound vibrations instead of touch.

    Cate’s in-person office space felt cozy, calm, and grounding. I felt completely safe, seen, and supported. It was a deeply restorative experience.

    I highly recommend working with Cate.”
