Insomnia-Related Symptom Reduction

Insomnia-Related Symptom Reduction with 7 Sessions of Audio Therapy

7-day sleep study of Addiction Rehab patient in residential setting, July, 2009.

The protocol for a research study conducted by the National Institute for Holistic Addiction Studies was the following: self-administered. 60-minute audio sleep therapy, NocturneTM, at bedtime played through MP3 player and ear buds. Patient self-defined severity of symptoms on Symptom Intensity Scale (SIS) before administering therapy and, post, on awakening. Patient was 10-year alcoholic with severe insomnia.

Subject notations:

Day 1: 'had really good dreams; first time in a long time'

Day 2: 'woke up twice and played the program & fell right back to sleep'

Day 5: 'could not go back to sleep but turned my program on—fell right back to sleep

Day 7: I woke up in the middle of the night and my batteries were dead & had a real hard time falling back to sleep

The subject using the Theracoustic Delta Sleep therapy reported an 80% drop in insomnia from the reported peak levels to the Day 7 level.

However, the sleep therapy had a more profound positive effect on anxiety than insomnia, reducing symptoms by 87.9% over the seven day period. Both Depression and Mood Swings were substantially reduced from pre to post treatment as well.
