The Effectiveness of Specific Frequency Ear Stimulation on Reducing Stress and Anxiety

Introduction: Millions of people are laid off from work every year and many are in early retirement because of stress side effects. If the economic cost for the patient suffered from stress side effects were added to the above mentioned economical loss, the direct and indirect economic damage of stress would became billion dollar cost to the society.Aim: The purpose of the present study is production an effective device to relieve stress in the short and long term.Material and Methods: Brain-wave synchronization as one of the most important brain wave modification techniques was used to manage stress in different individuals with different conditions. Spielberger test and change in EEG was used for determining of the device efficacy.Results: The findings showed that synchronization of the brainwaves with the auroral sounds in 460 and 720 Hz leads to a significant decrease in anxiety (P <0.01 and P <0.001, respectively). The EEG test results showed that the use of the device only once increases the symmetry of the alpha and theta waves and reduced the anxiety. Furthermore, 720 Hz wave was examined for 2 months showed a decrease in overall stress in the test subjects.Conclusion: The results indicated that the device was effective for stress and anxiety reduction and because of its safety, it could be used in the clinic for stress modification.
