About the Use of Brainwave Entrainment For Fibromyalgia & Chronic Pain Relief

Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain are common problems in the world’s population. Dominant in 3-5% of women and two to 4% of the general population, Fibromyalgia is characterized by persistent muscular pain, fatigue, sleeping problems and in some cases depression, anxiety and stress. The treatment of Fibromyalgia is still under study but the results of using brainwave entrainment are very promising:

In a comparative study on Fibromyalgia treatments, audio entrainment was better than both medical and nutritional treatments in many ways, including reduction of Pain and Anxiety. Combined treatment yielded even greater success.

Another research conducted by Mike Twittey and David Siever reduced Chronic Pain in fifteen participants over a period of study of 2 month . The Beck Depression Scale also indicated a significant reduction in depression.

In a case study conducted by Dr. Fred Boersma, a man with a severe back injury was able to reduce his pain killer intake from thirty-five extra strength Tylenol daily, to only two or three pills daily! The man also reported a more positive attitude, no doubt due in part to the increase in endorphins and serotonin that the light and sound sessions stimulated.

This is often an important section of this particular issue. A typical brainwave entrainment session, specifically designed for Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain reduction, consists of Sub-Delta (0 – one hz) frequencies, which seem to have soothing effects on the limbic system (the amygdala and hypothalamus), which themselves operate at delta frequencies. It’s theorized that this is the reason delta frequencies are so helpful with conditions such as fibromyalgia and chronic pain, as well hypertension.

Stimulation of Alpha waves in the brain also causes an increase in the release of serotonin, the body’s own pain relief drug, and it has been shown to help in the relief of certain types of headaches (such as migraine) and other types of bodily pain and discomfort, such as fibromyalgia. Brainwave entrainment also helps in physical healing processes as well as improving the immune system.

In conclusion, a session of 15-30 minutes of fibromyalgia session based on sounds and music used repeatedly can reduce significantly the symptoms of these terrible afflictions.
