Science & Research

What we know, what we're learning, and what we don't claim.

"Future medicine will be the medicine of frequencies." — Albert Einstein

Sound healing is an ancient practice, but modern research is beginning to explore why it may help. We stay informed by the science while honoring the mystery—some things that support healing aren't fully understood yet.

What Is a Sound Bath?

A sound bath is a full-body immersion in frequency and vibration. You lie back, close your eyes, and let the healing waves wash over you—like a meditation made of sound.

We use pure quartz crystal bowls, each tuned to a specific frequency that corresponds to one of the body's energy centers. When these centers are out of tune—due to stress, trauma, fatigue, or disconnection—our body enters survival mode. But when the right frequency is applied, your system can return to coherence.

The Frequencies We Use

Each bowl carries a specific Solfeggio frequency—tones used in sacred chant and healing rituals across centuries.

396 Hz

Liberates guilt and fear

Root
417 Hz

Clears emotional blocks and trauma

Sacral
528 Hz

Supports DNA repair and deep cellular healing

Solar Plexus
639 Hz

Restores heart coherence and relational harmony

Heart
741 Hz

Encourages detoxification and truth expression

Throat
852 Hz

Enhances intuition and inner awareness

Third Eye
963 Hz

Awakens pineal consciousness and spiritual connection

What We Know

  • Sound and vibration can activate the parasympathetic nervous system
  • 528 Hz exposure reduces cortisol and improves heart rate variability
  • 432 Hz tuning lowers anxiety and heart rate
  • Many people report reduced stress and improved mood after sessions

What We're Still Learning

  • Which frequencies are most effective for specific outcomes
  • Long-term effects of regular sound meditation practice
  • Individual differences in response to sound healing
  • How to best combine sound with other somatic practices

What We Do Not Claim

  • Sound healing does not treat, cure, or diagnose any medical condition
  • We are not a substitute for professional medical or mental health care
  • Results vary from person to person
  • If you are in crisis, please contact a licensed professional

Research We Follow

These studies inform our understanding. Each includes a label indicating the type of evidence.

528 Hz Music Reduces Stress and Improves HRV

Exposure to 528 Hz music has been shown to reduce stress hormones and increase heart rate variability—key markers of heart-brain coherence restoration.

Scope: Supports claims of stress reduction and nervous system regulation.

human

432 Hz Music Lowers Heart Rate and Anxiety

Instruments tuned to 432 Hz resonate with the Schumann Resonance—the Earth's natural frequency—and studies show this tuning lowers anxiety and heart rate.

Scope: Supports claims of relaxation and grounding.

432 Hz vs 440 Hz: Effects on Vital Parameters

Research comparing 432 Hz to standard 440 Hz tuning found significant differences in blood pressure and heart rate responses.

Scope: Preliminary evidence for frequency-specific effects.

How Sound Suppresses Pain

NIH research reveals the neural mechanisms by which sound and music can reduce pain perception through specific brain pathways.

Scope: Supports the mechanism behind pain relief during sound therapy.

Gamma Rhythm Stimulation for Neurological Health

MIT research shows evidence that gamma rhythm stimulation through sensory input can have therapeutic effects on the brain.

Scope: Emerging evidence for frequency-based brain entrainment.

Singing Bowl Meditation and Relaxation

A 2016 study found participants reported significant reductions in tension, anxiety, and depressed mood after Tibetan singing bowl sessions.

Scope: Supports claims of subjective relaxation and mood improvement.
