According to an article published in the Journal of Music Therapy, vibroacoustic therapy works by using specific frequency sound waves to stimulate the body's natural healing mechanisms. As the vibrations pe*****te the body, they trigger a cascade of physiological responses, including a reduction in stress hormones, an increase in serotonin and endorphin levels, and improved blood flow.
Research dating back to the 1960s has linked sound therapy to good health. Sound can have a positive impact on our health in several ways. One of the most well-known benefits of sound is its ability to calm and relax our mind and body.
Calming sounds can also be used to improve our mood and enhance our cognitive abilities. Certain types of music, for example, have been shown to increase dopamine levels in the brain, which can improve mood and motivation.
Other types of sound, such as white noise or pink noise, have been shown to improve cognitive performance by increasing focus and concentration.
