Introduction
We’ve always known that the potential of Woojer's technology extends far beyond entertainment. After gathering feedback from hundreds of thousands of Woojer users worldwide, we decided to take it a step further. While Woojer products provide incredible immersive experiences, we’ve consistently seen impressive wellness use cases that demonstrate the transformative power of sound frequencies. This inspired the creation of the Woojer MAT, a new form factor designed to bring the benefits of precise, vibroacoustic technology to everyday applications.
*This page will be updated with new research, studies, and real-world examples exploring how low-frequency sound may influence wellness and bodily experiences.
Disclaimer: Woojer products are not medical devices and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. The information provided is based on user experiences and preliminary, general studies, and should not be construed as medical advice.
Vibrotactile / vibroacoustic technology uses low-frequency sound (typically ~20–100 Hz) delivered to the body to stimulate mechanoreceptors and support relaxation. Research explores its potential effects on the nervous system and bodily perception.
Beyond entertainment
We invite you to share your experiences with the Woojer MAT or any Woojer product. Your stories will inspire others, spark new ideas, and reveal the true power of sound.
The videos below discuss general research or individual experiences related to low-frequency vibroacoustic methods. They do not reflect product-specific claims for any Woojer product. Woojer MAT is a consumer wellness device, not a medical device, and it is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition, including autism, ADHD, Parkinson’s, chronic pain, or any other health-related issue. Individual experiences vary and should not be interpreted as medical advice.
A somatic experience.
Woojer's vibrotactile technology uses low-frequency sound to create vibrations your body can feel. General research explores potential benefits such as easing discomfort, supporting relaxation, and promoting sleep quality, though further large-scale studies are needed. Emerging research also examines its potential role in various wellness and sensory-related contexts.
What Is Vibrotactile (Vibroacoustic) Therapy?
Pain Relief
- Fibromyalgia Study: Low-frequency sound stimulation was associated with improvements in reported pain intensity and daily function.
- BMJ Open Scoping Review (2022): A review of adult pain studies found vibroacoustic methods to be well tolerated and reported potential benefits, while emphasizing the need for larger controlled trials.
- Metodo Frequency® Case Report (Dr. Giovanni Peduto): This case report documented changes in perceived discomfort related to ovulation, dysmenorrhea, and PCOS symptoms following vibrotactile stimulation.
- Post-Herpetic Neuralgia Case Report (2021): Vibroacoustic stimulation was associated with changes in reported nerve-related discomfort, mood, and sleep quality in an individual case.
- Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome Pilot Study (2020): Participants reported decreased pain interference and improved sleep following vibroacoustic sessions.
- Pilot RCT in students – Vibroacoustic stimulation was associated with shifts in HRV toward greater parasympathetic balance, suggesting a potential calming effect.
- EEG/ECG relaxation signatures (2024) – Low-frequency stimulation showed measurable physiological markers associated with relaxation.
- Effects of Vibroacoustic Stimulation on Psychological, Physiological, and Cognitive Stress – Participants demonstrated reductions in self-reported psychological and physiological stress measures.
- Haptic Technology Patch Study – Vibrotactile trigger-based stimulation was linked to reduced perceived anxiety in this exploratory study.
- Acute Stress Response Study – Low-frequency vibration was associated with enhanced parasympathetic activity during acute stress tasks.
- Gentle Vibrotactile Stimulation in Fibromyalgia – Participants reported improvements in stress-related symptoms, pain, and fatigue during vibrotactile sessions.
- Vibration Therapy and Stress-Related Sleep Disturbances – This ongoing clinical trial is investigating how vibration-based interventions may influence symptoms related to sleep and stress.
Stress Relief
Sleep quality
- Insomnia and fMRI connectivity changes (2024) – Vibroacoustic stimulation was associated with changes in sleep measures and altered functional connectivity patterns.
- Closed-loop vibration (2024) – In this study, participants with sleep difficulties showed improvements in both subjective and objective indicators of sleep quality.
- Mechanical bed with sleep-inducing vibration – Low-frequency vibration was linked to reduced sleep latency and increased sleepiness in this experimental setup.
- Vibrotactile awakening efficacy – Vibrotactile cues influenced awakening responses in healthy subjects, with varied effects in medicated individuals.
- Neck-based vibrotactile intervention – Vibrotactile stimulation applied to the neck was associated with reduced supine sleep time among individuals with sleep-disordered breathing.
- Vibration-based sleep system – This exploratory work examined beat-frequency vibration as a potential non-pharmacological approach to supporting sleep in insomnia populations.
Dr. peduto
Dr. Giovanni Peduto is an Italian kinesiologist known for exploring low-frequency vibroacoustic methods through his Metodo Frequency™ approach. His work examines how sound-based stimulation may support relaxation, comfort, and somatic awareness. In some exploratory sessions, he has incorporated Woojer devices into his broader interest in vibroacoustic tools. His findings reflect his own professional observations and should not be interpreted as medical claims for Woojer products.

Emerging Applications
Autism
Vibroacoustic Stimulation and Emotion Regulation in Autism
Early exploratory research has examined how low-frequency vibroacoustic stimulation may relate to attention and emotion-regulation processes in autistic children. Mixed-methods pilot (Healthcare, 2025)
Tactile Processing and Sleep in Autism Spectrum Disorder
This study investigated the relationship between tactile sensory modulation and sleep patterns in individuals with ASD, exploring whether low-frequency tactile input could influence sleep-related behavioral measures. MDPI
Wearable Vibrotactile Stimulation in ASD
A pilot study evaluated the safety and tolerability of a wearable vibrotactile device delivering low-frequency stimulation intended to support sensory processing and sleep-related outcomes in individuals with ASD. PMC
Parkinson’s

Reviews have explored whether rhythmic low-frequency vibroacoustic stimulation may be associated with changes in motor-related measures among individuals with Parkinson’s disease. Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience (2020)
Coordinated Vibrotactile Stimulation Studies
Research into coordinated vibrotactile stimulation has examined potential effects on motor symptoms and neural activity patterns in Parkinson’s populations. PMC
Binaural and Acoustic Stimulation Research
Some studies have evaluated whether low-frequency acoustic or vibrotactile stimulation may relate to aspects of motor performance in Parkinson’s disease. Frontiers
ADHD
Vibrotactile Stimulation and Sleep Power Topography in ADHD
This study examined how low-frequency vibrotactile stimulation related to sleep power topography in children with ADHD, exploring potential associations with sleep patterns and attentional processes. PMC
