A method for manufacturing a sound absorption structure comprising a cellular panel, a porous layer positioned on a cellular panel first face, a reflective layer positioned on a cellular panel second face and a plurality of acoustic elements positioned in the cellular panel. The method comprises the steps of producing, for each acoustic element, a recess in the cellular panel opening out onto the first and second faces of the cellular panel, inserting the acoustic elements into their recesses, laying an anchoring layer on the second cellular panel face, curing or polymerization at a first pressure to connect each acoustic element to the cellular panel and/or to the anchoring layer, putting in place the porous layer and the reflective layer, and curing or polymerization at a second pressure to connect the porous layer and the reflective layer to the cellular panel.
