Music can have a big impact on your mood. Did you know that listening to certain music can also be positive for your physical and mental health? This is because of the specific frequencies used. Solfeggio frequencies have a healing effect and can promote deep relaxation, allowing you to recover and unwind both mentally and physically.

What are Solfeggio frequencies?

Solfeggio frequencies consist of sets of specific tones that resonate at certain frequencies, each with unique effects and benefits. You can perceive them directly as a single tone, and you don't have to use headphones to notice their effect.

Each solfeggio frequency is associated with specific benefits, such as promoting the body's healing ability or spiritual growth.

This is because the frequencies are believed to resonate with the Schumann resonance (the earth's energy field) and with the chakras in our bodies.

The origins of Solfeggio frequencies

Solfeggio frequencies date back to the Middle Ages. At that time, an "ancient" scale was used in Gregorian chants.

In the 1970s, this scale was rediscovered by physicist Dr. Joseph Puleo and investigated further. From this came six measurable frequencies: the solfeggio frequencies, each of which has healing properties. Later, three more tones were added.

What is the difference between Solfeggio frequencies and binaural beats?

Solfeggio frequencies date back to the Middle Ages and were used in Gregorian chants. They can have healing properties. You don't need headphones to listen to them. They are specifically tuned to eight main frequencies: 174 Hz, 285 Hz, 396 Hz, 417 Hz, 528 Hz, 639 Hz, 741 Hz and 852 Hz.

Binaural beats, on the other hand, are a modern phenomenon demonstrated by German scientist Heinrich Wilhelm Dove in 1839. Binaural beats originate playing two tones that are slightly different from each other, one in each ear. Your brain then automatically creates a third tone to compensate for the difference: the binaural beat. The frequency of binaural beats correspond to specific brain waves. This only works if you listen to them with headphones or earbuds.
