Case Study: The Effects of Vibroacoustic Therapy On Clinical And Non-Clinical Populations
http://vibroacoustic.org/FrequencyInfo/Research%20Articles/Wigram.Vat.Thesis.pdf
Read through this article above. There is some great information in relation to vibroacoustic therapy on all levels of functioning. Choose some levels that you believe your clients would benefit from and take down some quotes for your website or personal referencing.
Some I find interesting are:
Muscular:
"Other physically handicapping conditions which have shown a positive response to VA therapy have included multiple sclerosis, Rett syndrome, spasticity, and muscular over-use syndrome. Research in the clinic for children and adults with Rett syndrome at the Harper House Children Service in Hertfordshire, England, has already shown a positive response from almost all of the patients attending the clinic to VA therapy. In short, fifteen minute sessions, using classical and folk music 76 combined with frequencies between 38Hz and 44Hz, observational reports have noted increased levels of relaxation, reduced anxiety, reduced hand plucking, and reduced hyperventilation (Cass et al. 1994; Wigram and Cass, 1995)."
Pulmonary disorders:
" Further anecdotal results have shown some effect on certain pulmonary disorders, including asthma, cystic fibrosis, pulmonary emphysema and metachromatic leucodystrophy. Both metachromatic leucodystrophy and cystic fibrosis have similar symptoms that involves difficulties patients have in coughing up lung secretions and phlegm in order to keep the lungs clear. VA therapy has a palliative effect here in assisting the patient in coughing up secretions, by generating a vibration into the lungs and shifting mucus on the bed of the lungs causing a cough reflex to occur. Skille reported that up to the end of 1994, four children with this specific disorder in Norway were having VA therapy on a daily basis (Wigram and Skille, 1995). 77 Asthmatic problems have been alleviated by VA therapy, with easier breathing, reduced wheezing, and decreased viscosity of the expectorates in the lungs. Because severe asthmatic conditions sometimes cause bronchial spasms, the spasmolytic effect of VA therapy has been helpful in reducing the severity of asthma attacks."
