Today vibroacoustic therapy is used as an effective treatment for many types of diseases, including addiction. When an individual suffering from substance abuse takes part in this type of therapy, the same areas of the brain that are affected by their addiction are targeted by the vibrational therapy.
For example, individuals who have an addiction problem may display certain behaviors, such as becoming agitated or angry very quickly. They may be anxious, have trouble concentrating, or exhibit bad judgment. Vibroacoustic therapy helps by calming the person down and instilling a feeling of well-being.
The vibrations from the sound waves also have a positive effect on the areas of the brain that control thinking, the ability to focus, concentration, and the ability to know right from wrong.
Vibroacoustic therapy helps the individual learn how to relax as their body gets back in sync with itself. It helps the body to self-regulate as it regains balance and becomes healed.
