A DEVICE AND METHOD TO INDUCE VIBRATIONAL WAVEFORMS THAT HETERODYNE IN THE BODY TO IMPROVE SLEEP ONSET AND SLEEP QUALITY

摘要

A system for introducing vibrational waves into a body of a subject to treat sleep disorders is provided. The system includes a bed frame having a first vibration contact and a second vibration contact. The first vibration contact is in mechanical communication with a first location of the body of the subject, and the second vibration contact is in mechanical communication with a second location of the body of the subject. A first vibration source is connected to the first vibration contact and configured to cause a first vibration of the first vibration contact. A second vibration source is connected to the second vibration contact and configured to cause a second vibration of the second vibration contact. The location or orientation of the first vibration contact and the second vibration contact are configured such that the first vibration combines with the second vibration to generate a super-imposed vibration.
