A History of Brainwave Entrainment And It's Benefits
By causing the brain to produce or decrease specific types of brainwave frequencies, it is possible to bring about a large variety of mental states and emotional reactions.
The benefits of brainwave entrainment - the process of enhancing your normal brainwave state - has been known to many scientists and doctors for years.
These benefits include, but are not limited to, improvements in the following areas: Temporary Pain Relief, Temporary Stress Reduction, Sleeping Disorders, General Relaxation, and Meditation.
Up until the recent discovery of the more effective Isochronic tones, binaural beats were the most recognized form of brainwave entrainment.
Binaural beats were first discovered in 1839 by a German experimenter, H. W. Dove.
The human ability to "hear" binaural beats appears to be the result of evolutionary adaptation. Many evolved species can detect binaural beats because of their brain structure.
In humans, binaural beats can be detected when carrier waves are below approximately 1000 Hz. Here's why: wave lengths below 1000 Hz are longer than the diameter of the human skull. Thus, these wave lengths actually curve around the skull by diffraction and are thus heard by both ears.
As the sound wave passes around the skull, each ear hears a different portion of the wave it's this difference that allows for the accurate location of sounds below 1000 Hz.
