adminDelta waves are the slowest of the brainwave frequencies and oscillate between 0hz and 4hz. Delta brainwaves are present during deep sleep, and are characterised by high amplitude waves.
HEALING & REJUVINATION
It’s during delta sleep that your body heals and rejuvenates itself, which is why it’s so important to adopt healthy sleeping patterns. Delta binaural beats or isochronic tones are a useful tool for training your brain to enter this state more efficiently, leading to a deeper, more refreshing sleep.
PAIN RELIEF
Due to its sedating effects, delta brainwave entrainment is excellent for minor pain relief, especially headaches and migraines. In a study by Solomon GD, 14 out of 15 people were cured after only 5 minutes of brainwave stimulation.
ANXIETY RELIEF
In 2005, a study was conducted on 108 patients about to undergo general anaesthesia prior to major surgery. The patients were divided into three groups. One group listened to relaxing music combined with binaural beats, another group listened to the same music without the binaural beats, while the third group received no specific stimulus – these patients either read a book or watched TV.
The study found that those who listened to music combined with binaural beats experienced greater anxiety relief compared to those who either listened to music only, or received no specific intervention.
