Abstract

Overview

The study investigates the effects of Schumann resonance, a type of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field, on insomnia. This non-invasive treatment was tested for its potential to alleviate insomnia symptoms using both subjective and objective assessments.

Patients and Methods

  • A double-blinded, randomized design was employed.
  • Forty participants, predominantly female, underwent the treatment.
  • Participants were divided into two groups: those using the Schumann resonance sleep device and those using a placebo device.
  • Data was collected over four weeks using various sleep assessment tools including polysomnography.

Findings

Improvements were significant in the group using the Schumann resonance sleep device, showing better results in both objective and subjective sleep measurements compared to the placebo group.

Conclusion

The use of the Schumann resonance sleep device has shown to effectively reduce symptoms of insomnia with minimal side effects, suggesting potential for future healthcare applications and deeper research into electromagnetic field effects on sleep.
