Whether you’re looking to get better sleep, reduce your stress level, lose weight or increase your mental clarity — our brain health specialist will customize a BrainTap program that best suits your goals. 

What is the BrainTap headset?  

The BrainTap brainwave entrainment headset delivers gentle pulses of light and sound through special earphones and from within a visor. These lights synchronize with two types of sound — binaural beats and isochronic tones — to produce deep relaxation and help with sleep. Every session is uniquely encoded with Neuro-Sensory Algorithms (NSAs) to gently guide you from a wide-awake state into a deeply relaxed state.

What are binaural beats?  

These are imbedded tones that the brain naturally follows into states of deep relaxation. Binaural beats work by tricking the brain into hearing a phantom frequency that isn’t really there. For example, if we play a220 Hz carrier tone into the left ear and a 226.5 Hz carrier tone into the right ear, your brain perceives the difference between the two, which is a subtle beat frequency of 6.5Hz, the same frequency associated with deep, meditative states. Your brain naturally follows this frequency, and you experience this deeply relaxed state. Binaural beats are a proven self-development tool that’s been researched for decades.

What are isochronic tones?   

Isochronic tones are manually created, equal intensity pulses of sound separated by an interval of silence. They turn on and off rapidly, but the speed depends on the desired brain frequency. The discrete nature of isochronic tones makes them particularly easy for the brain to follow.

What is auriculotherapy (lights in the earphones)?  

Trigger points in the ears, called meridians, are known to directly affect the body’s organs and systems.  These are typically activated with needles during acupuncture, but light frequencies are known to have the same effect.  Low level light therapy has been shown to increase the parasympathetic (rest and relaxation) nervous system.
