Rooted in quantum physics is the concept that “everything is vibration,” suggesting that all matter, energy, and consciousness in the universe exist in a state of constant motion and oscillation at specific frequencies. Frequency is the measurement of how often a repeated event occurs per unit of time, defined as cycles per second and denoted in hertz (Hz), where one hertz equals one cycle per second. By exposing the mind and body to the Solfeggio frequency, we can easily achieve a greater sense of balance and deep healing. Solfeggio frequencies align us with the rhythms and tones that form the basis of the universe.
Associated with meditation music, Solfeggio is known as the original 6-tone scale and frequencies used by Gregorian monks when they sang in a meditative state, with chants based on the original six notes: 396Hz, 417Hz, 528Hz, 639Hz, 741Hz, and 852Hz. Rediscovered in the mid-1970s by Dr. Joseph Puleo using Pythagorean numerology, the Solfeggio frequencies are now recognized as a set of nine sacred tones believed to promote physical and spiritual healing by aligning bodily cells with universal rhythms through entrainment, based on concepts from sound therapy and ancient music theory. They are often used for stress reduction, cellular regeneration, and emotional balance.
The system originated from an 11th-century mnemonic for learning chants and was later replaced by the modern Solfège system, which uses the syllables Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La, and Ti to represent pitches in a scale. Some believe the original frequencies were “hidden” or suppressed by the Church because of their claimed spiritual and DNA-repairing powers. The tones are associated with the hymn Ut queant laxis to Saint John the Baptist, developed by Benedictine monk Guido d’Arezzo. Proponents of this theory believe these frequencies hold powerful, healing, bio-resonant qualities (connected to 3-6-9 mathematics) and that they were removed from Western music to limit spiritual consciousness.
174 Hertz
The lowest of the tones, this frequency is known as the “frequency of physical healing,” often used to relieve pain, reduce stress, and promote a sense of security. It is believed to work at a somatic level, grounding the body and easing tension by releasing pain and restoring comfort.
Pain management. Known as the “pain relief frequency,” it is often used for easing back pain, foot pain, and general tension.

Somatic support. It is often utilized in trauma-aware, restorative, and yoga practices to aid the physical body in letting go of stress.
285 Hertz
This frequency is believed to promote physical healing, tissue regeneration, and immune system strengthening. Known as a “healing frequency,” it is often used for repairing damaged tissue, treating wounds or burns, and balancing energy fields, particularly by grounding the body and aligning with the root chakra. 285 Hz is often described as a “pure tone” which is often used in meditation or sleep music.
