Relieves Stress and Anxiety
Vibroacoustic therapy uses audible sound frequencies combined with gentle vibration to promote healing on both physical and neurological levels. Clients relax comfortably in a reclining position while vibrations wash over them and stimulate their bodies and nervous systems – similar to deep meditation! Vibroacoustic therapy‘s long-term and potency benefits can make this an essential component of holistic wellness practices.
At a VAT session, you’ll recline on a therapeutic sound bed while listening to relaxing music through headphones. This specialized bed features tactile transducers that send low-frequency vibrations (typically 30-120 hertz or Hz) into your body’s tissues, muscles and cells for an invigorating vibrational massage – inducing relaxation responses while shifting into parasympathetic “rest and digest” mode.
Vibroacoustic therapy has been proven to effectively lower heart rates, blood pressure levels, cortisol levels, mental chatter and tension while encouraging blood flow and tissue repair. It helps calm tension, relieve mental chatter and promote deep and restful sleep for both adults and children. Vibroacoustic therapy has also been demonstrated to decrease stress anxiety depression chronic pain symptoms in both groups; particularly effective for children who struggle with focus attention emotional stability as well as those experiencing posttraumatic stress disorder or similar trauma-related disorders.
Vibroacoustic therapy differs from most conventional medicines in that it does not cause any side effects or dependence, instead stimulating your natural healing processes to release various harmful chemicals like cortisol and adrenaline that are stored in your body and mind. Vibroacoustic therapy is safe, noninvasive treatment suitable for anyone of any age or health status and can even be combined with other therapies for a truly transformative experience.
Reduces Pain and Muscle Tension
Inducing the relaxation response allows the brain to switch out of an hyperactive, stressful state into parasympathetic mode for rest-and-digest, which has many health benefits. A vibroacoustic therapy session may help alleviate anxiety, insomnia, chronic pain, PTSD and more; in addition it has been shown to reduce inflammation and increase circulation, making it an excellent treatment option for stress related diseases like heart disease or high blood pressure.
Vibroacoustic Therapy, or VAT, combines specific sound frequencies with vibrations to stimulate tissues, muscles and cells for therapeutic effect. Our InHarmony Vibroacoustic Therapy Bed features dual 50W RMS sub-transducers strategically placed to resonate with large muscle groups resulting in full body “sonic massage.” Its combination of sounds and vibrations promotes relaxation as well as autonomic nervous system balance for an unforgettable meditative experience that promotes relaxation and autonomic nervous system balance.
VAT’s relaxing effects allow the body to produce mood-enhancing chemicals like dopamine and serotonin, helping clients to increase focus during sessions and become more productive afterwards. Furthermore, VAT offers incredible healing potential for trauma survivors by relaxing the nervous system and aiding emotional healing processes.
Vibroacoustic therapy sessions use low-frequency vibrations to mechanically activate the vagus nerve, an important player in parasympathetic nervous system “rest and digest” response. As a result, cortisol levels decrease along with heart rate and blood pressure reductions.
At a VAT session, rhythmic vibrations act like a cellular massage and help relieve pain, tension and stiffness by stimulating specific touch receptors in cells. They may also interrupt chronic pain signals while increasing circulation by expanding blood vessels and lymphatic pathways.
Vibroacoustic Therapy has become an increasingly popular treatment choice for individuals with special needs such as autism or ADHD, seniors suffering from restlessness, anxiety, high blood pressure and headaches, as well as those suffering from restless legs syndrome or other neurological problems. Furthermore, it has also been known to alleviate symptoms associated with fibromyalgia such as increased pain sensitivity and impaired sleep quality.
Promotes Circulation
Vibroacoustic therapy uses speakers known as transducers to convert audio signals into vibrations felt throughout the body, creating an integrative treatment with multiple benefits including mood-boosting neurotransmitter release, muscle tension release and improved circulation via widening blood vessels and lymphatic pathways. Vibroacoustic therapy beds offer an easy and effective solution for recovering from workouts, managing stress or just relaxing – perfect for use during recovery timeframes or for relaxing after stressful situations.
Vibration helps develop proprioception and interoception – the awareness of where your body is in space, including internal sensations such as your heartbeat and breath – making you aware of where it is and improving interoceptive and somatic awareness in trauma-exposed individuals. A 2023 study demonstrated this effect.
Both vibration plates and vibroacoustic therapy beds stimulate mechanoreceptors, but VAT therapy beds achieve it on an unprecedented scale. When experiencing VAT therapy sessions in supine position, vibration travels up your entire skeleton from various points simultaneously, activating receptors throughout your entire body while inhibiting nociceptive pathways simultaneously.
VAT’s pulsatile vibration stimulates endothelial cells to produce vasodilator nitric oxide which in turn improves blood flow and circulation. Although its amplitude, contact surface area, body position of vibration differ between plates and beds, their cell-level responses remain similar.
Vibration and sound therapy combined with music stimulate the vagus nerve to reduce sympathetic nervous system activity and switch toward parasympathetic regulation (the “rest and digest” branch of parasympathetic regulation). This allows your body to focus on healing and recovery processes more effectively.
Though numerous studies have documented the benefits of vibration therapy, its exact mechanisms remain poorly understood. One theory suggests that vibration can stimulate your central nervous system to release mood-enhancing neurotransmitters; another theory holds that sound and vibration stimulate mechanoreceptors to inhibit pain perception; yet another explanation holds that rhythmic stimulation triggers the vagus nerve which activates parasympathetic nervous system to decrease physiological and cognitive stress markers.
Promotes Sleep
VAT uses rhythmic vibration stimulation to induce endorphin release, the body’s natural mood-elevating chemicals. As a result, VAT can help improve sleep and mood disorders by relieving anxiety and stress and encouraging relaxation. Furthermore, VAT stimulates brainwave activity associated with relaxation and creativity – ideal for those suffering cognitive impairment.
VAT’s effectiveness at aiding sleep stems from its combination of physiological pathways, including parasympathetic nervous system activation, brainwave entrainment and muscle tension reduction. Studies have identified 40Hz as being ideal as it has been found to increase parasympathetic output while simultaneously increasing slow wave sleep while simultaneously decreasing cortisol levels and improving overall efficiency of restful slumber.
As well, vibrations within the bed encourage blood flow, increasing oxygen delivery to cells and aiding lymphatic drainage – two processes which aid wound healing and speed up wound recovery time for athletes or those experiencing joint pain and inflammation. VAT can be used either alone or alongside traditional physical therapy protocols to achieve maximum results quickly and comprehensively.
Are You Looking to Recover After an Extended Workout or Manage Stress with Vibroacoustic Therapy Bed? Designed for modern day recovery after strenuous workouts or stress management, inHarmony Vibroacoustic Therapy Bed offers the modern way of relaxing and rejuvenating. Powered sound waves and vibrations penetrate deeply into muscles, tissues and cells of the body to loosen tightness while simultaneously dissolving emotional build-up that you might not even be aware of!
Vibroacoustic sound therapy is safe and effective for nearly everyone, except for those with pacemakers or implanted electronic devices (due to magnetic components in vibrators) or pregnant women (due to magnetic components present in vibrators). Furthermore, due to this device containing magnetic components that could possibly interfere with implanted electronics). Additionally, pregnant women should avoid using it.
