What Are Healing Frequencies? Tap Into The Practice Of Sound Wave Therapy

We all know music can be healing. Classical music is known to be soothing, and who doesn’t immediately cheer up whenever you hear your favorite pop anthem? (Y’all know you perk up whenever you hear “Watermelon Sugar.”) Music can even make us laugh. In fact, we’re so aware of the power of music that we give our children musical baby names. But what about healing frequencies? It might seem “New Age-y,” but sound frequency healing has been around for centuries to promote wellness for the mind and body.

Healing frequencies are used in holistic and eastern medicine to treat an array of ailments, including everything from anxiety and depression to menstrual cramps and insomnia. On YouTube, you can basically search for any issue you might have and — voilà! — there will be a healing frequency for it. Yes, even for dogs and cats. Another way people use sound therapy? As a tool to help bring a sense of calm and mindfulness to children. So, if the kids are driving you bananas, they might need to hear some soothing sounds to help cool their jets.

You may be wondering, Yeah, but how can healing frequencies help me? We’ll fill you in. As sound healing becomes more popular (and more needed than ever in this crazy world), here are a few things to keep in mind.

What are healing frequencies?

Healing frequencies are a type of sound wave therapy to induce a state of ease and harmony in the body. Different frequencies of sound can have a different effect on human brain activity. It’s believed that once a new frequency gets introduced to your brain, your brain waves feel compelled to sync to it — effectively launching you into a different “brain state” and having an overall holistic effect on your body.

Instruments frequently used in sound frequency therapy:

• Singing bowls
• Gongs
• Windchimes
• Pan flutes
• Hang
• Didgeridoo
• Djembe
• Rainstick
• Drums
• Tuning forks
• Tongue drums

There are many issues that healing frequencies are said to help alleviate. While there isn’t a ton of research to back up the benefits of sound healing, some of the most commonly reported benefits are:

• Reduced stress and anxiety
• Increased focus, concentration, and motivation
• Improved confidence

What are the solfeggio frequencies?

To prove that healing frequencies aren’t just a new Instagram sensation, we’re going to take you back to medieval Italy when an Italian Benedictine monk named Guido of Arezzo was looking for ways to teach melodies and harmonies to monastic choirs. He came up with “ut re mi fa sol la” to help express a musical scale, which eventually turned into what we now know as “do re mi fa so la ti do” (introduced in the 19th century).

Solfeggio is based on the word solfège, the name for this notation method of teaching pitch and sight singing. The solfeggio frequencies are part of this six-tone scale and can be heard in the famous Gregorian Chants. And, interestingly enough, research suggests that singing these ancient chants relieves fatigue and alleviates depression.
