A person's own brain waves (EEG) are converted to music. Supposedly the healing rhythms are extrapolated.
We checked with the practitioner in Purcellville, VA. He charges $550 total for the appointment and the EEG and the CD. Insurance will not pay anything on this -- research and experimental treatment.
The recording he has is Human Plus Relax. The purpose of that CD is to rebalance the right and left hemispheres of the brain.
The site Gigi posted looks like it is slightly different than the 2 sites I have posted.
Music can be very healing.
I still remember visiting the nursing home with hubby several years ago. His mother had Alzheimer's. There was one patient there who had lost their ability to speak so they could be understood. During a Christmas musical presentation the man was able to sing "Santa Claus is Coming to Town." He died a few months later.

Talk about coincidences. Just got my December issue of Oprah magazine in the mail today. It has a 2 page article called "Wired for Sound" written by the noted neurologist Oliver Sacks (author of Awakenings and other books).
This is one quote from the article "The right sort of music can literally unlock someone frozen by Parkinson's disease, so that they may be able to dance or sing, even though, in the absence of music, they may be unable to take a step or say a word."
He also mentions music for stroke victims with aphasia, people with Tourette's syndrome, also those with Alzheimer's or dementia.

Hemi-sync is very good. It was developed by Robert Monroe. He had some interesting ideas about Remote Viewing & out of body experiences.
