For many years, our guest Bill Flanagan conducted research and clinical trials at UCI integrating ancient healing modalities into western medical models for the ultimate benefit of patients. Today, he’s sharing what he learned  as a licensed acupuncturist and the CEO of HUSO, Inc.

So, what is HUSO?

HUSO stands for Human Sound, and it is a patented technology that uses individual sound frequencies sourced directly from human toning (think Tibetan monks or native American sound healers) to restore a state of health and wellbeing to the body.

You might have heard me talk about HUSO over the last few episodes, and that’s because it has recently changed my life. 80-90% of illness is related to stress, and I happen to be one of those people who have a difficult time staying in a Parasympathetic Mode – but this has really been helping during a stressful period of my life.

HUSO tones are created with unique frequencies recorded from the human voice. They have added a combination of harmonics in order to create a specific restorative oscillation. These oscillating sound frequencies are introduced to the brain through headphones and to the body through pads on acupuncture points at wrists and ankles. They have found that this combination of auditory and sensory inputs greatly enhances HUSO’s ability to create an autonomic nervous system balance in the user.

HUSO sound effects the body through the scientific principles of resonance and entrainment. This results in creating a shift of the autonomic nervous system from a sympathetic (fight or flight) state to a parasympathetic (resting and healing) state.  When the autonomic nervous system is balanced the body functions at an optimal level.

There is no electrical current in the treatment, everything coming through both headphones and pads is oscillating sound. HUSO is designed with utmost attention to detail and for optimization of results, from hand-made wrist and ankle pads, to our lossless sound delivery system.

Some of the major benefits of HUSO are:

• Improved focus and mental clarity during workouts and competition
• Accelerated recovery post-event and after workouts
• Greatly reduces stress and anxiety (including performance anxiety)
• Users report significant improvements in overall sleep quality
• Greatly enhances the effectiveness of other training techniques
• Non-invasive and easy to use

Why Human Sound?

Human-generated sound is the most effective carrier and delivery system of beneficial frequency to the body, when compared to frequencies or tones that are machine or digitally produced, or tones created through the use of musical instruments, singing bowls, or tuning forks.

Our brain and body are hard-wired to readily resonate and entrain with the human voice, and the human voice can elicit not only a physiological response, but often a powerful, transcendent, and transformative emotional one as well.

Why sound instead of light?
