 Yes. Scientific research shows that sound and music can influence the nervous system, emotional state, and cognitive function.

Studies in music therapy and sound-based interventions have found that sound can:

• Reduce stress and anxiety
   
• Lower heart rate and blood pressure
   
• Support relaxation and nervous system balance
   
• Improve mood and emotional regulation
   
• Enhance focus, memory, and cognitive function
   

Some research also suggests that certain sound environments and meditative sound practices can improve overall well-being and a person’s sense of inner peace or spiritual quality of life.

While the effects of sound on the physical, emotional, and mental systems are well documented, research into specific healing frequencies and subtle energy systems is still developing.

Sonic Reiki is offered as a complementary wellness practice designed to support relaxation, awareness, and energetic balance.
