The Somadome does not require its own room and can easily be placed in a waiting room, lobby, or any otherwise underused floor space. The environment inside the dome is noise-canceling, and we have many placements’ users’ experiences not materially compromised by busy surroundings. The main goal with placement is to create a space that feels special and private, so that the user’s feet are ideally not facing a lot of foot traffic. The optimum direction to face the dome’s opening from which the user’s feet come out is north in relation to the energy healing tiles within the base.

The Somadome should not be placed in direct sunlight as it can impact the experience, and should be kept indoors to protect it from unnecessary damage caused by the elements. To best experience the benefits of Somadome, it is recommended to place it away from bright direct overhead lighting or for these lights to be dimmed or turned off during sessions. Direct overhead light competes with the LEDs inside of the dome, resulting in a minimized delivery of color therapy provided by the lighting that is tuned to each specific session type.
