EFFECTS OF LOW FREQUENCY SOUND VIBRATION TO HUMAN PSYCHOLOGICAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL PHENOMENON : A LITERATURE REVIEW

[ABSTRACT]Low frequency sound (LFS) is used in Vibroacoustic Therapy (VAT) which categorized as one of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) fashion. VAT is a therapy fashion that uses audible sound (40 Hz - 120 Hz) to produce vibrations through the transducer which is applied directly to the body. The aim of this paper is to describe the effects of LFS to human psychological and physiological behaviour. The papers were peer-reviewed based on published papers that can be accessed freely online and the essences were combined to synthesize a new conclusion accompanied by the writer’s ideas. It is showed that VAT can reduces the anxiety level, indicated by the decrease of average patients blood pressure up to 10.97 bpm. The significance reduction on patients Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (88.8 to 16.8) indicated the capability of VAT to overcome Fibromyalgia’s symptoms. The difference of neurite outgrowth frequency in NGF-treated PC12m3 cells between intervention of 40 Hz and 200 Hz vibrational sound condition is significance and potentially lead to the cure Alzheimer disease. LFS in VAT also decrease pain in patients with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis due to the reduction of Simplified Disease Activity Index up to 34. Results showed great effects of LFS on the health improvement and human psychology through VAT as a physics agent therapy. However, research about effects of VAT to human health and psychology is still needed due to the lack of information about physics phenomenon in the body with VAT treatment.
