Do Solfeggio Frequencies heal and should we not redefine the prime numbers?

[ghettosynth]

I'm thinking if I get said glove, and tune the 12 string to 432hz (this part may take some time..), then I could become some manner of healing guru. I will test on my piles.

I've heard that proximity matters. After tuning, you might want to try sitting on your 12 string? If it doesn't help you, at least it might cheer up the people around you. If you need a cushion, try looking around for some bagpipes to put on the 12 string. All tuned to 432, of course.

People are such idiots. Pick up a sixth grade science book and start your journey to a bigger world.

If frequencies healed, we'd have a hell of a lot fewer musicians with tinnitus, crippled dancers, and drug-addicted recording engineers. Fewer blown-out speakers as well, I'd imagine.

Alas, the only evidence of it working is indistinguishable from placebo effects, especially from people who already believed in it. But this is good, because it leads us to something far more interesting: the psychosomatic effect itself. Just believing in something can sometimes make it happen... it's like magic, except that it objectively (and occasionally) works. For example, it turns out that it's really hard to develop a new medicine that works more reliably than placebo.

Ah, leukemia, hundreds of thousands Hertz, destroying cells and DNA. Not acoustic, but electromagnetic. All, not just cancer. No word about "repairing DNA", just destruction.

Commonly known as radiation therapy I think...

Just sing a lullaby to your tumor. If it only were so simple.

There is evidence that ultrasound can selectively kill cancer cells. The frequencies, however, are specifically related to the mechanical differences in cancer cells. You aren't going to kill your cancer by pitching down Led Zeppelin and playing it backwards.

That's always the problem with this shit, an ounce of truth leads to nonsense that allows hucksters to peddle bullshit to the vulnerable.

The kicker (unfortunately) with testing, proving, and applying, is this:

... applied for and received funding to continue the research

That's how science works though. Even the video above doesn't claim that this exists now. However, it's clear that ultrasound can be used to selectively kill cancer cells in a limited context. Perhaps there are specific limitations to this method that will prevent this from working as a standalone therapy? I wouldn't know, it's far outside of my expertise. However, none of this gets us to the nutty land of religious frequencies.

The paper published in 2020 has some 47 citations. That's not bad by most measures. There's some interesting stuff in there that is much more toned down, realistic, and simply expressed as part of a suite of cancer treatments rather than a TED talk style pipe dream.

That ultrasound is obviously not in the music realm.

Obviously. That's the nutty part of this sort of thing. Valid idea: mechanical objects have resonance(s) and we can leverage the differences between objects of interest and other objects to make use of acoustic waves as a therapy. Nutty idea : music cures cancer.

[Artie Fichelle]

if music can cure cancer, maybe some of it also cause cancer.

[vurt]

jazz probably.

[BertKoor]

Ah. That's why it smells funny.
