room and feel transported as they aim to
step away from stressful work situations.
Rather than using traditional forms
of audio delivery, such as headphones
or a surround sound system, Wellstar
selected Spatial because it has previously
been difficult, if not impossible, to imbue
healing environments with sound that fully
envelops a space and its inhabitants. But
with the launch of Spatial's fully immersive
audio platform, it is now possible to put
science-backed research at the service of
healing by using soundscapes for anxiety
reduction, palliative care and recovery.
Enhancing Immersive Experiences
Spatial technology enables these objectives
via:
› Precision: For sound and music therapy
to be most effective, it must be able to be
targeted with the precision of a drug.
› Standardization: Doctors require clear
protocols and patients expect predictable
outcomes.
› Personalization: Spatial soundscapes,
enhanced with sensors and linked to other
devices in the space, enable experiences
that adapt to evolving needs.
The Wellstar Kennestone Hospital
project required the installation of in-wall
invisible speakers by Sonance, as well as
cablin, amps, and a complex networking
configuration achieved through cross-functional
collaboration between Wellstar, AGT
and heavy involvement from the Spatial
team to complete across a shared wellness
room and three private wellness rooms
included in the space.
The room specifications with speakers
and subs installs are as follows:
› One Main Wellness Room (18 feet, 10
inches x 17 feet, 8 inches): 14 speakers/
subs (9 invisible wall speakers, 4 ceiling/
pendant speakers 1 subwoofer)
› Three Private Rooms (7 feet, 6 inches x 11
feet, 4 inches): 6 speakers/subs each (4
invisible wall speakers, 1 ceiling/pendant,
1 subwoofer)
› All in-wall speakers are placed 20 to 24
inches from the floor to edge of IS6T
speaker, with devices installed upside
down (tweeter close to the floor)
Since opening this and similar spaces
installed by AGT across their hospitals,
hundreds of team members have benefited
from the Wellness Room to manage stress
and practice workplace self-care. Similar
installations leveraging Spatial's immersive
audio technology may be utilized in
patient-facing settings in the future.
