How does Sound Therapy differ from other therapeutic listening programs on the market?

Rhythm versus Frequency

A number of other sound applications have been developed using specific rhythms to entrain the brain and induce greater states of relaxation. (Essentially entrainment means the brain waves are slowed down and brought into synch with the rhythm of the music or sounds.) These may be seen under the names of SuperLearning, Holosynch or Hemisynch among others.

Sound Therapy is different to these programs because it uses varied frequencies to physically reactivate the ear. By stimulating and enhancing ear function, the therapy has a profound restorative effect on the brain and the entire nervous system. Sound Therapy impacts on many ear related and neurological conditions not addressed by other methods.

Since the ear responds to sound whether we are conscious of it or not, Sound Therapy does not require conscious attention to work. Hence it can be played as you are engaged in other activities, unlike the entrainment programs which require your full focus to be effective.
