Strange Phenomenon, Weird Sensation
Project by Juan Qin
In the year of something something, experiencing ASMR media has become a new normal and part of our daily lives. Just like you can get chocolate from the candy store, people extend the ASMR experience to a new level, both virtually and in a physical setup. You might hear people telling you that if you feel stressed and in a bad mood, a piece of chocolate will help. And today, there is an alternative solution for you, the ASMR treatment! In cooperation with the concept, there are a few test labs that are going to operate in the city. The first test lab, a multi-sensory soothing bar is going to launch this summer. The location is on the second floor in room 204, Møllendalsveien 61. How does it work? To experience this, you need to register on the website, and once confirmed, you will receive an email invitation. Then you will need to arrive on time. Each therapy is about 10 to 20 minutes, and of course, you can determine if you start feeling uncomfortable. At the end of the session, our therapist will invite you for feedback on your experience and maybe schedule a new session. Hope to see you soon!
