Abstract

Vibroacoustic therapy is a treatment using the relaxing effects of sedative music combined with pulsed, sinusoidal low frequency tones between 35Hz-70Hz, transmitted through bass speakers built into a bed or chair. This treatment has shown effects in reducing arousal level in girls and women with Rett syndrome, and also reducing muscle tone.
