Healing
Sound healing uses specific frequencies and vibrations to promote physical and emotional well-being. Our evidence-based guides cover binaural beats, Solfeggio frequencies, sound baths, and frequency therapy, grounding each recommendation in peer-reviewed research from journals like Frontiers in Psychology, PLoS One, and Psychological Research.
What is Healing?
Sound healing is the therapeutic use of specific audio frequencies to promote physical, emotional, and cognitive well-being. Practitioners use tools such as tuning forks, singing bowls, and digitally generated binaural beats at precise frequencies like 432 Hz and 528 Hz. Research in psychoacoustics and neuroscience suggests these vibrations can modulate brainwave states, reduce cortisol, and lower perceived pain.
- A meta-analysis of 22 studies found binaural beats reduced anxiety with a moderate effect size (g = 0.45). — Psychological Research, 2019
- 528 Hz frequency exposure reduced cortisol levels by 12% in a controlled study of 30 participants. — Journal of Addiction Research & Therapy, 2018

Frequently asked questions
What are healing frequencies?
Healing frequencies are specific sound frequencies — such as 432 Hz, 528 Hz, and Solfeggio tones — believed to promote physical and emotional well-being. Research in psychoacoustics suggests certain frequencies can influence brainwave patterns and stress response.
Do binaural beats actually work?
Meta-analyses of 22+ studies show binaural beats have a moderate effect on anxiety and cognitive measures. Effects vary by frequency, duration, and individual. They work best as a complementary tool, not a standalone treatment.
How long should I listen to healing frequencies?
Most clinical studies use sessions of 15-30 minutes. Beginners should start with 10-minute sessions and gradually increase. Consistency matters more than session length.
