Q: What is Hemi-Sync®?
A: Hemi-Sync® is a scientifically based and clinically proven “audio-guidance” technology that uses sound to influence brain wave activity. This patented, and highly sophisticated technology is backed by over 50 years of research.

Q: Is Hemi-Sync safe?
A: With millions of products sold worldwide, Hemi-Sync is a patented audio technology that has been university studied and clinically tested for more than 40 years. Its safety and effectiveness is supported by numerous studies, reports, articles and testimonials available at www.Hemi-Sync.com. We do not recommend using Hemi-Sync in combination with other technologies that influence brain activity.

Q: How does Hemi-Sync® work?
A: Hemi-Sync® is an audio-guidance process that works through the generation of complex, multilayered audio signals, which act together to create a resonance that is reflected in unique brain wave forms characteristic of specific states of consciousness. The result is a focused, whole-brain state known as hemispheric synchronization, or “Hemi-Sync®,” where the left and right hemispheres are working together in a state of coherence. As an analogy, lasers produce focused, coherent light. Hemi-Sync® produces a focused, coherent mind, which is an optimal condition for improving human performance

Q: Can someone with hearing loss benefit from Hemi-Sync®?
A: Yes. Doctors and individuals with impaired hearing tell us that the frequencies are effectively carried to the brain by the bones in the ear canal.

Q: Are Hemi-Sync® products subliminal?
A: No. Subliminal recordings have the intention of embedding a particular thought in the mind of the listener by recording words at sub audible levels, often at high speeds. Hemi-Sync® sound patterns, although recorded at a sub audible level, are not verbal messages and are not recorded at high speed. The purpose of Hemi-Sync® sound patterns is to assist you in obtaining the focused brain state you desire.

Q: Is Hemi-Sync® recommended for children?
A: All nonverbal recordings are fine for children. With verbally guided titles, we recommend you listen first and then decide based on your child’s level of maturity.

Q: How does Hemi-Sync® compare to other products?
A: We occasionally receive inquiries from individuals desiring to know how Hemi-Sync® compares to other brain wave products they may have heard about. It would be inappropriate for us to comment on specific products or technologies but following are some observations we can make with regard to Hemi-Sync:

• Robert Monroe’s pioneering work with hemispheric synchronization (Hemi-Sync) sound patterns inspired an entire industry of mind/brain products and technologies.
• Hemi-Sync is a technologically sophisticated process that has been awarded three U.S. patents.
• With millions of products sold worldwide, Hemi-Sync® has been shown to be a highly effective, safe, time-proven technology.
• Improving the efficacy of Hemi-Sync® has been a continually evolving process—which we have remained committed. Today’s Hemi-Sync® has been refined with over 50 years of research and development and is supported by numerous studies, reports, articles and testimonials available at www.Hemi-Sync.com. Hemi-Sync® has been scientifically and clinically proven to be effective.
• Over the years, the Hemi-Sync® process has evolved into a sophisticated multi-layering of Hemi-Sync® signals—”designer mixes” of sound frequencies, fashioned to be optimally effective for a given application. Naturally, Hemi-Sync® sleep products incorporate predominately delta frequencies; learning products predominately beta and so forth. However, these designer mixes are supplemented with special sound frequencies which enable the desired result. This is the “key” to the effectiveness of Hemi-Sync.
• Ongoing Hemi-Sync® research has resulted in the development of scores of individual products for specific applications such as focused attention, stress reduction, meditation, sleep enhancement, and pain control, to name a few. Other Hemi-Sync® products are available as a series (some of which are progressive in nature) such as the Gateway Experience® In-Home training program for exploring states of consciousness.
• We do not recommend using Hemi-Sync® in combination with other devices or technologies that influence brain activity.

Q: Why am I not supposed to listen to Hemi-Sync® if I have a tendency towards seizures?
A: Seizures result from abnormal brainwave activity. Hemi-Sync’s influence on brainwave activity might not be beneficial for someone with that tendency.

Q: Is Hemi-Sync® beneficial for experienced meditators?
A: Yes. Many long-term meditators report that Hemi-Sync® helps them move more quickly and reliably into a meditative state. Experienced meditators also report that they seem to “go deeper,” and sustain the meditative state longer when using Hemi-Sync.
