Handpan Fusion

Use the handpan for sophrology and music therapy

The handpan is particularly popular in sophrology and music therapy for its soothing, relaxing qualities. Its harmonic frequencies, created by striking the "ding" and the tone fields, produce a sound bath that’s ideal for deep relaxation. Practitioners integrate it into guided meditation, dynamic relaxation, or stress and anxiety management sessions, either one-on-one or in groups. These sound exercises work just as well in a practice space as they do outdoors, drawing on the energy of the setting. No musical training is required: the instrument stays in tune and sounds good right away, which makes it especially easy to use in therapeutic contexts. A handpan for sophrology and music therapy is a real asset for wellness professionals who want to broaden their toolkit. Thanks to its portability and lightweight design, you can take it anywhere to support your sessions. Order your handpan today and discover its benefits in your relaxation and wellness practices.

Join the Handpan Family, a friendly, family-oriented festival

For the past few years, the Handpan Festival in Sauvian has offered two days of Handpan Family before the official opening. Created to revive the original spirit, this smaller gathering invites festival-goers to play freely under canopies, with spontaneous jams keeping the vibe alive. Workshops focused on getting started and improvisation welcome beginners and experienced players alike, while handpan makers showcase their latest models in a warm, community setting. Jewelry artisans and practitioners of lithotherapy, yoga, and reflexology round out the wellness side of the event. Registration is free, with no fixed schedule—just show up with your handpan and join in. Shared meals, prepared by local food trucks, encourage conversation and strengthen the sense of community. This friendly atmosphere and the musical exchanges before the festival get your hands and mind ready for the main event’s sonic exploration. Buy your handpan today and join these two family-friendly days.

Adopt the Free Integral Hang, the ultimate version from PANArt

The third and final generation of the Hang, produced between 2008 and 2013, is called the "Free Integral Hang." This version, unique in the history of PANArt, focuses on a single free scale chosen by the creators, aiming for pure musical expression—neither too deep nor too bright. The "ding" design evolved into a cleaner, more refined shape, and the remaining eight tone fields were optimized for longer resonance. Only a few Free Integral Hang models were released, reinforcing its aura as a collector's piece. After this period, PANArt chose to stop producing the Hang altogether to focus on the Gubal, Gudu, and HangBal. Embrace this memorable chapter of history by investing in a handpan inspired by the Free Integral Hang.

Embrace the ideal frequencies of the handpan for deep and instant meditation

When creating the Hang in 2000, Felix Rohner and Sabrina Schärer drew on frequency science to tune each tone field using precise ratios. Each note includes a fundamental, an octave at half its frequency, and a fifth at one-third, creating a spectrum that supports well-being and can invite deep relaxation. Although we don't know exactly how these frequencies work, many users report benefits such as reduced stress and an improved mood. The handpan’s natural vibrato, created by its double convex welded steel shell, helps project an even, 360° sound field. Easy to play with no musical background, this instrument is used by music therapists in yoga sessions, sound massage, and art therapy. Whether you’re listening to a CD, watching a video, or enjoying a live concert, the handpan can turn your space into a sanctuary of serenity. Order your handpan now!
