Personalized relaxation for restless minds
Mathilde first discovered virtual ASMR at 16 years old in foster care. Unfamiliar with a new environment and struggling with severe anxiety, Mathilde began using ASMR as a tool for dismantling stress. Targeted role plays helped her feel seen, while “tingles” relaxed her restless thoughts and comforted her to sleep every night.
Keeping this up through early adulthood, Mathilde used ASMR as a low stimulation, relaxing auditory genre that improved her focus and lowered her stress while working. Without ASMR, Mathilde never would have learned about creative outlets that naturally slow her heart rate, address and conquer the feeling of stress in her body, and help her feel in control of her auditory environment.
ASMR by Mathilde was born from a desire to bring the benefits of virtual ASMR, to real life. Based in Winthrop, Massachusetts, our mission is to promote the use of profound tingles as a more accessible form of stress relief for people struggling with severe anxiety throughout Greater Boston. We believe in in-person ASMR as form of sound therapy, capable of boosting your mood and spirit to give you an afterglow from within, as well as give you a new perspective on your auditory environments after just one session.
What to expect
Our role plays are meant to simulate natural, real-life interactions. We use normal, soft-spoken speech to engage with you (We won’t use intentional “mouth sounds”).
Frequency music, aromatherapy, and visual healing are all incorporated into your session along with tactile healing to foster total body and spirit healing.
Creative tools for interesting sounds are added and improved all the time! (Ocean drum, metal chimes, glass beads, etc). We happily accept requests for new auditory triggers.
Every ASMR package is catered to you and your specific preferences. You have the option to close your eyes and fall into a deep calm, or experience tingles as you converse and participate. Make the experience totally yours.
