According to addiction expert Gabor Maté, “addiction is a complex psychological, emotional, physiological, neurobiological, social, and spiritual process.” Treating this complex disease effectively often requires individualized, holistic approaches involving multiple treatment modalities.
Founder and CEO Ward Blanchard wanted The Blanchard Institute to be a modern clinic treating addiction but also functioning as a community resource, teaching site, and general wellness center, always exploring the latest modalities.
One of the latest therapy methods utilized at Blanchard is the Biosound® Therapy System, a vibrational platform constructed with memory foam and integrated with an audio/visual delivery system. The Biosound® Therapy System utilizes precisely choreographed music synchronized with low-frequency sine tones and binaural beats.
The goal is to put the nervous system into a deep, restful state that can slow the heartbeat and guide the brain into specific brainwave states. These states can be associated with relaxation, focus, or pain relief.
Biosound therapy has been shown to be an effective treatment for a variety of mental health conditions, including addiction, anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It may also reduce stress, alleviate some withdrawal symptoms, and improve mood and sense of well-being.
Biosound therapy uses:
- Biofeedback
- Brain Entrainment
- Therapeutic Music
- Vibrational Massage
- Sound Frequencies
- Guided imagery
Benefits include:
- Pain Relief
- Reduced muscle tension
- Anxiety mitigation
- Enhanced relaxation
- Decreased stress
- Improved sleep
The Biosound Therapy System is an effective treatment method for addiction. Many healthcare professionals swear by this revolutionary healing treatment that combines music therapy with technology-controlled massages, specific to each client. It helps manage and control withdrawal symptoms, cravings, anxiety, depression, and many other issues on the road to recovery.
“Biosound Therapy’s organic and sophisticated technique integrates both a musical stimulation, in addition to visually guided meditation, with the Biosound Therapy System,” wrote Biosound CEO Chris Gallant in 2018. “The most dominant advantages to using the Biosound system is the calming effect, guiding patients towards a healing meditative state, concentrating on their breathing, bringing them to the present and a state of coherence. The Biosound Therapy System incorporates realistic and a constructive biofeedback program established on years of scientific analysis on the psychophysiology of stress, emotions, and interactions between the heart and brain.”
Patient testimonials show that Biosound Therapy can significantly impact the early recovery process.
