What is a Nonstress Test?
An NST (nonstress test) is a monitor that tracks your baby’s heart rate over time and shows if its rate increases when your baby moves around, such as during contractions. An NST may be done if there are concerns regarding decreased fetal movement; alternatively it can also be combined with biophysical profile assessment for optimal […]
Health Benefits of Vibroacoustic Therapy
From naturopathic medical schools in the Pacific Northwest to clinics across Arizona, practitioners are increasingly including sound therapy in their comprehensive treatment protocols. This shift demonstrates a greater understanding of how precise acoustic stimulation impacts health at a cellular level. Vibroacoustic therapy uses vibrational frequencies and soothing music to reduce stress and ease pain, promote […]
Vibroacoustic Simulation for Electric Vehicle (EV) Drivetrains
Multiphysics vibroacoustic simulation has emerged as an integral element of electric vehicle (EV) powertrain development, providing quieter and more refined drivetrains with minimal physical prototyping requirements. An in-depth NVH analysis may involve various fields including electromagnetic motor forces, contact mechanics for gears and bearings, flexible multibody dynamics analysis, structural FEM modelling and acoustics. High-fidelity time-domain […]
What is Vibroacoustic Stimulation?
How does it work? Vibroacoustic stimulation, commonly referred to as sound healing, lies at the intersection of sound, touch and nervous system science. It provides a noninvasive means of working with the body when stress, pain or disregulation has become chronic and challenging to change. Many find rhythmic, low frequency vibration similar to that experienced […]
Fetal Vibroacoustic Stimulation
Fetal vibroacoustic stimulation utilizes a handheld device or mobile phone app designed for this study that sends brief sound bursts directly to an unborn baby, with the goal of awakening it and increasing frequency of one or more fetal heart rate accelerations necessary for passing a non-stress test. A recent review of 12 randomised controlled […]
