Meet Craig Goldberg | Co-Founder at inHarmony Interactive, Technologist & Certified Vibroacoustic Therapy Practitioner

We had the good fortune of connecting with Craig Goldberg and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Craig, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
As a business owner, the most important factor to our success has been to stay true to our mission to improve the human condition and share the benefits of vibroacoustic and vibration therapy with the world. We’re contributing to a movement toward better health through preventative therapies and technologies.
We have been growing rapidly these past few years. We currently provide the relaxation furniture and record label, inHarmony Media. Rest assured, there are more product extensions coming in the future.
Coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic we’ve seen a massive shift in daily routines and lifestyles, with more people prioritizing and focusing on health and well-being. The pandemic made us more conscious of the importance of self-care, mental health, and physical fitness. Many people changed jobs, switched to remote work, had to juggle childcare responsibilities, or experience social isolation…all which contributed to increased stress and anxiety levels.
As a result, we’ve seen a surge in people taking up wellness practices such as meditation, yoga, healthy eating, and exercise. Companies are also recognizing the importance of employee wellness and are providing resources and programs to support their physical and mental health while at the office with wellness rooms and meditation spaces. This refocused energy and effort towards wellness has brought a much-needed positive change in our culture and society, promoting healthy living and inHarmony is part of that movement.
The inHarmony brand is growing to provide a unique and immersive experience to everyone through vibroacoustic technology that delivers relaxation, better sleep, weight loss, heart health, detoxification, increased circulation, and reduced anxiety. I hope my legacy will be to be a part of personal wellness journeys and ultimately improve people’s lives.
Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
As the co-founder of InHarmony Interactive, I am happy to explain our business and customers. InHarmony Interactive is a technology company that is on a mission to revolutionize America’s approach to mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. We offer a line of relaxation furniture, which includes the inHarmony Sound Lounge, inHarmony Practitioner, and inHarmony Meditation Cushion as well as our app inHarmony: Music Meditations, which drives the content through our technology. These pieces of furniture are designed to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance wellness. Our customers for these products include spas, wellness centers, healthcare facilities, and individuals who prioritize self-care and relaxation.
All three of the inHarmony furniture products deliver fast and effective benefits to the whole body. Within seconds of sitting on the inHarmony Meditation Cushion or laying down on the inHarmony Sound Lounge or inHarmony Practitioner you’ll experience a deeply centering mind-body experience. In as little as 11-minutes you’ll experience benefits, such as: muscle relaxation, lymphatic drainage, stress reduction, and a more relaxed nervous system.
It’s unique that inHarmony offers products for both B2B and B2C audiences. Initially, the inHarmony Sound Lounge (launch 2016) and inHarmony Practitioner (launch 2018) were purchased primarily by professional healthcare practitioners. The Sound Lounge is our most immersive experience; ideal for home or office. The Practitioner resembles a massage table and was built specifically to augment bodywork and hands-on modalities with vibration therapy.
The team at inHarmony knows our technology helps bring our clients into a meditative state. We began prototyping a smaller footprint product, focused on meditation. In 2020 we ran a successful Indiegogo Campaign to bring to life our newest innovation; the inHarmony Meditation Cushion. Now all three inHarmony products are being used at homes and businesses.
As a leader in vibro-tactile stimulation and Vibroacoustic Therapy, it’s noteworthy that our products are the most powerful on the market and that we continue to invest into therapeutic music with a new record label: inHarmony Media. The original music features a distinctive blend of progressive, edgy guitar riffs and arpeggiations. Sound therapy promotes physical and psychological healing by putting your body into a parasympathetic state, where our bodies can naturally repair and heal.
In 2023 we expanded the inHarmony brand into a music label. It is an important step in supporting the mission of improving the human condition and sharing the benefits of vibroacoustic and vibration therapy with the world. Sound therapy is having a major moment right now—the inHarmony app currently has over 3,000 users who listen to over 8,000 tracks per month.
I believe it’s important to be reliable, show up for people, and live by our core values (curiosity, innovation, inspiration, community, and achievement). We are blessed that our partners and customers share these values which has earned us their loyalty and a solid reputation.
It’s also important to share more about the origin story with you. What better way to bring you into the community than to share more about our family and how I became passionate about the world of vibroacoustic therapy.
About ten years ago Ipek, my wife, began showing signs of illness. For over six months we went to Doctor after Doctor, Specialist after Specialist, and no one could tell us what was wrong. I cannot even tell you how many tests and appointments we had with results coming back normal. All to say, they did not know what was going on.
After months of not being able to figure out what was causing her to feel sick, we had a close friend suggest removing gluten from our diet because the symptoms could be caused by a gluten sensitivity. This pesky little ingredient we now know so much about was causing her body to become inflamed. Three days without gluten and sure enough, all of her symptoms went away. This led to a deep dive into the body and how it operates. This research opened the door for my journey into the mind-body connection, mindfulness, and wellness.
Fast forward a few years and our entire family eats gluten free. My wife, Ipek, is feeling so much better. But there is another twist to the story that’s equally important to my drastic career and lifestyle change.
When we initially switched to gluten free there was an unforeseen complication with my health and my energy started to decline. After a few months of struggling I woke up on a Sunday morning and I started doing research about food. My first key learning was that I was feeling worse because my body was detoxing after cutting out gluten.
The second key learning was about genetically modified organisms (GMO’s). I watched a documentary called “Genetic Roulette” and after taking notes and fact checking what I learned, I realized just how many foods we were eating and products we were using that were genetically modified.
These two truths compelled us to go through our entire house and get rid of all of the harmful products we were using and foods we were eating. We went vegan and organic and were extremely strict with our diet – as extreme as bringing our own food everywhere we went. We changed everything and started eating clean, finding replacements for products we were using that had harmful ingredients in them. This is how we were introduced to essential oils…and then…vibroacoustic therapy.
As you may know, essential oils have many benefits on the body and we became voracious to learn everything there was to know about them.
We were now deep in our health and wellness journey and wanted to share our knowledge with the people around us. We started traveling to teach and educate others about the efficacy of essential oils and how they help the body interact with the nervous system.
While we were traveling teaching about essential oils, I was constantly drawn to the sound baths at the conferences we attended. I wanted to be able to recreate this feeling in the comfort of my own home to have “sound therapy on tap.”
After a conference, I went back home, took a 5.1 stereo system, laid down on the floor in the starfish position, surrounded my body with speakers and cranked up the music to try and recreate that feeling.
At this point I knew that I wanted to continue to try to recreate this feeling, but I didn’t have the right technology. Soon after this, I connected with Business Partner, Dominic Carnevale, and had my first Sound Lounge experience. Half way through my session, I took the headphones off and realized he had recreated exactly what I was looking for.
Since then, Dom and I have been working together, supporting one another and building the beautiful inHarmony community of like-minded, exceptional human beings, on a quest for optimal human performance.
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
It is a challenging task to condense recognition into just one person, group, or organization. But I’ll give it a try.
As you know, it’s important for the inHarmony team to stay focused on the mission and values. This guides our decision-making and helps us stay true to the bigger purpose. When you face challenges or difficult decisions, my advice is to always refer back to your mission and ask yourself if your actions align with it. The people, groups, organizations, etc that myself and Co-Founder, Dominic Carnevale surround ourselves with also align with our mission and values.
I’m a member of the Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) in the Las Vegas chapter and this community is incredibly valuable in helping me stay adaptable to the constantly changing business landscape. One of the main benefits of being a part of EO is the access to a global network of entrepreneurs who are facing similar challenges and opportunities in their businesses. This network allows us to share knowledge, exchange ideas, and learn from one another, which is especially important in a constantly changing business landscape. EO also offers educational resources and events that focus on topics such as innovation, technology, and leadership, which helps members stay up-to-date on the latest trends and developments in the business world. Additionally, EO provides a platform for members to collaborate on new business ventures and partnerships, which can help us adapt to changes in the market and take advantage of new opportunities as they arise. Overall, the EO community has been instrumental in helping me stay adaptable and nimble in the face of a constantly changing business landscape
Which leads me into my next piece of advice, which is to build strong relationships.
Success in business is often dependent on the relationships you build. Whether it’s with your employees, customers, or partners, invest in building strong connections. Communicate effectively, be transparent, and show appreciation for those who support you. Building a network of strong relationships can help you overcome challenges and achieve long-term success.
One of the special groups I want to call out today is the inHarmony affiliate team. Having a network of affiliates who are passionate about our products has helped to expand our reach and drive sales. I’ve made an extra effort to cultivate relationships with our affiliates and provide them with the resources they need to be successful. When our affiliates succeed, inHarmony succeeds, so it’s a win-win situation.
At inHarmony, we value all our loyal partnerships and relationships and believe they are key to our continued success.
