ASTI SOUND+THERAPY: A sound machine for blissful sleep

Good sleep is tough to come by, but there are devices you can use to promote healthier, better-quality rest. Like ASTI’s SOUND+THERAPY machine, which uses 40 Hertz sound and gamma light to improve user sleep.

Maybe you knew this already, maybe you didn’t, but March is National Sleep Month. National Sleep Awareness week falls between March 9 and 15. The idea is to highlight the connection between quality sleep and your general health. If you get good sleep, that’s healthy. If you don’t, well, you get the drift. Outside of taking medication to fall asleep and stay asleep, there are tools you can use. Adaptive Sound Technology’s (ASTI) SOUND + THERAPY is a solid example. It’s a light and sound machine designed to help promote healthier, better-quality sleep.

It uses 40 Hertz gamma sound and light output, utilizing pleasing background noise and optimal light to improve user sleep. It features four different sound beat synthesizers, with nine calibrated volume levels. The optimal volume levels were chosen with the aid of sleep studies, by the way. Moreover, an optional synchronized gamma light flash with four levels and optional fan sound masking mode add in auxiliary support. A built-in sleep timer helps keep things on schedule. Plus, a headphone jack means you can localize the audio so you don’t disturb your partners.

The 40 Hertz sound band is challenging to replicate, but this machine successfully does it. The brand also says the machine has helped those living with Autism Spectrum Disorder, PTSD, ADHD, and refractory insomnia. Personally, I fall into the ADHD category there, so I might check this thing out myself.
