InnerSoulutions • About Us
Our Story
Stephen Deuel – Founder
For more than 25 years, Inner Soulutions has been creating vibroacoustic therapy products that blend handcrafted woodworking with warm, water-based resonance. Our Liquid Sound Table, sound massage tables, and vibroacoustic music tracks are designed to help people relax more deeply, let go of stress, and reconnect with themselves through gentle vibration and therapeutic frequencies. Everything we make comes from our own lived experience with vibroacoustics and how it can support the body, mind, and spirit.
Long before I ever built my first sound table, my connection to vibration was shaped by years spent in the Bay Area in the early 1980s. The small venues, the warm wooden rooms, and the way music seemed to move like a tide through everyone present left a lasting imprint. What stayed with me wasn’t the volume or the crowds—it was how sound could feel smooth, enveloping, almost liquid when the room was right and the moment was right. Those experiences helped form my understanding of how gentle, resonant vibration can hold and support a person rather than overwhelm them. That sensibility has guided every table I’ve built since.
Inner Soulutions grew out of a very personal journey. Deborah was living with Dystonia, a muscle movement disorder that affected her daily life in a big way. Through one of her friends, she was introduced to a very basic “sound table” built with car stereo parts. The moment she tried it, everything changed. Her muscle movements slowed, her body relaxed in a way she hadn’t experienced in a long time, and her nervous system finally felt like it had a place to settle.
I (Stephen) saw that same basic table and immediately knew I could build something that would offer a smoother, more supportive, more reliable experience. With a background in woodworking, energy modalities, and a lifelong fascination with sound, I started shaping a table that resonated cleanly, felt comforting, and could stand up to real daily use. That first build for Deborah became the beginning of our work together, and soon friends and practitioners began requesting their own.
What started from a very heartfelt need grew naturally into Inner Soulutions. We didn’t set out to build a business — we followed what helped Deborah, what supported the people around us, and what felt like the right next step. Our tables and music continue to evolve from that same place of curiosity, care, and hands-on experience.
How We Approach This Work
We focus on creating tools that genuinely help people feel better — calmer, clearer, more grounded. There’s no hype, no “quick fixes,” and no machinery-for-machinery’s sake. Just warm resonance, gentle frequencies, and handcrafted instruments made with intention.
- Craftsmanship with purpose. Every Liquid Sound Table and lift table is built by hand, one at a time, in our workshop in Grand Island, NY.
- Smooth, clean vibration. We build for comfort, deep resonance, and a supportive experience — not overpowering buzz or physical jolt.
- Experience-led design. Our understanding comes from real sessions, years of use, and feedback from therapists, veterans, and individuals.
- A grounded approach. No clinical jargon. No big claims. Just sound you can feel and a place to relax.
Who We Are
Stephen Deuel – Founder & Table Builder
I’ve been involved with sound and vibration as a healing tool since 1987 and began building vibroacoustic sound tables in 1999. My work blends woodworking, acoustics, and a deep respect for how the body responds to sound. I design and build our Liquid Sound Table and our lift-enabled stationary tables by hand. My goal has always been the same: create instruments that make it easier for people to relax, reset, and feel more like themselves.
Deborah Deuel, NHC – Co-Founder & Guide
Deborah has been a Natural Health Consultant since 1995 and has worked with sound, energy, and intuitive facilitation for many years. Her own experience with Dystonia is where all of this began, and she continues to guide people through understanding themselves more deeply and finding comfort, clarity, and balance in their lives. Her lived experience is woven into the heart of everything we create.
Chris Deuel – Vibroacoustic Music Composer
Chris creates the Vibroacoustic Music (VAM) tracks used on our tables and in our music library. He combines modular synthesis, atmospheric sound design, and his background in psychology to build music that is grounding, expansive, and soothing to the nervous system. His work pairs beautifully with the tables and adds a deep emotional and energetic dimension to the sessions.
Why We Do This
We’ve seen over and over how sound can help people feel more at ease — whether they’re dealing with pain, stress, overwhelm, or simply needing a place to rest. Our work is about offering people something real: a supportive, gentle experience that helps the body unwind and the mind settle.
Every table we ship out carries that intention. It’s personal work for us — always has been, always will be.
