WELLBEING
Sound frequencies have a healing effect for physical illness or injury and for mental and emotional issues. TRUDY KITHER explains how tuning in can have real benefits for mind and body.
Sound waves can be detected in the human ear at a wide range of frequencies from approximately 20Hz to 20,000Hz. A sound below this frequency is called infrasound and above is an ultrasound.

A dog’s frequency detection levels are as low as 50Hz and as high as 45,000Hz, while cats can detect frequencies as low as 45Hz and as high as 85,000Hz.
For centuries, humans have understood the profound effect that sound has on the mind and body. Physicians in ancient times knew enough from their observations to realise a connection between sound and healing.
It wasn’t until the 21st century that scientists began to measure the powerful impact music and sound frequencies consistently have on mind and body.
Now, it is understood that there are precise healing frequencies of our bodies. Specific frequencies are used in healing therapy to manipulate human cells and brainwaves to promote healing.
Sound frequency healing is used for all sorts of health issues, including physical ailments and psychological disorders such as depression, insomnia, and anxiety.
Depending on the frequencies used and its vibration and rhythm, frequency healing works on a cellular level by triggering genetic changes and can even damage dangerous cells.
Therapeutically, exposure to specific sound frequencies has been found to alter brain and body activities. This activity promotes lower stress levels and high self-healing immunological responses.
Because lower frequencies cause irritation, disease, and other negative effects on our bodies, high frequencies are used for healing purposes in natural medicine. Here’s a guide: 40Hz – sounds at this level have been used in Alzheimer’s therapy studies to stimulate an increased neural response and fight symptoms of dementia. This is the frequency of gamma brain waves and stimulation of memory. 174Hz – one of the Solfeggio frequencies, which is a series of tones used to have different positive effects on our health, including reducing pain and stress. 285Hz – another Solfeggio frequency, heals physical wounds, including cuts and burns. This frequency activates your body’s cellular regeneration and encourages it to recover from injury and illness. 396Hz – is associated with removing fear and other negative feelings, including guilt. It transforms negative emotions into more joyful and positive ones. 417Hz – focuses on removing negative energies, such as energy surrounding a past trauma or negative energies in the environment. It dissolves emotional blockages. 432Hz – leads to higher levels of emotional and mental clarity. 440Hz – is considered “cerebral” (brain) music, as it helps your cognitive development. 528Hz – this is probably the most popular of the Solfeggio frequencies. It is known as the “miracle note” due to being associated with blessings. It has been used (since before written history began) among native populations as their sound healing therapy. 639Hz – used to produce positive feelings and greater attunement to harmonious interpersonal relationships. It encourages more precise communication practices and situational awareness. 852Hz - helps redirect the mind away from overthinking, and intrusive and damaging thought patterns, leading to anxiety and depression. 936Hz – activates the pineal gland and higher spiritual development. Known as the “frequency of the gods” and the “pure miracle tone”, 936Hz activates the crown chakra and a connection to the source of all humanity.
As you can see, there are many different vibrational/sound frequencies used as healing treatments. Their ability to produce physical healing effects to counteract illness or injury, can also change negative thoughts associated with mental and emotional issues.
