Q&A: Mobile app sound frequencies help ease anxiety, calm mind

Key takeaways:

• Sound frequencies on the Soaak app can reduce stress within minutes, according to the company.
• An adviser to Soaak said patient responses have been “overwhelmingly positive and transformative.”

Individuals who experience anxiety or insomnia may benefit from a new, personalized option for reducing stress and promoting relaxation — all within a touch of their phones.

Soaak, a wellness solution and app available on iOS, Android and other platforms, features dozens of unique sound frequency compositions that support deeper breathing and a calmer mind. The compositions, which blend multiple frequencies for specific outcomes, can substantially reduce stress within minutes, according to Soaak Technologies.

Listening to certain frequencies can encourage oscillations in the brain, heart and breath to become more synchronized; increase or inhibit the production of neurochemicals, such as serotonin and dopamine; stimulate healing; and enhance focus, the company states on its website. App users can listen to the frequencies alone, with nature sounds or with a musical accompaniment.

For more information, Healio interviewed Stephanie P. Christner, DO, medical director and head of research at Soaak Technologies, and Troy Byer, PsyD, a clinical psychologist who sits on the company’s board of advisers and has years of experience recommending Soaak to patients.
