I thought this was interesting. I don't know whether it would have real use as a treatment, but if you believe that glymphatic dysfunction plays a role in ME (@Rufous McKinney), it seems easy enough to experiment with. A 40 Hz flashing light and/or sound pulse is easy to generate with a simple electronic circuit, a simple computer program, or even an electric motor spinning a disk (with light hole and clicker) at 2400 rpm (not that building anything is really simple when you have ME).

I think it's interesting that the brain has specialized neurons that react to such a frequency, and that exposure to this input can affect capillary pulsation and fluid flow through astrocytes. The brain is not a simple network of electrical circuits; it's really complex with all these hard-to-notice interactions. ME could involve one or more of these subtle interactions, possibly one not discovered yet.

Good post.

Whether this is appropriate to post here, I have used both Binaural and Solfeggio frequencies with good success. The key is to find the right sound signature as this seems to be individualistic. Headphones are a must and can find these on YouTube. I found in the past that these frequencies could control anxiety quite well.

Here is one that I like:

I agree. When I could not tolerate one drop of supplement ON MY skin without throat/mouth swelling and couldn’t handle light, noises, etc. finding certain gentle solfeggio frequencies was the absolute first thing that helped me come back from a coma like state. Initially I could only do small amounts and only at certain times of the day but as I became stronger, this changed. Eventually my body began allowing more nutrients i needed, which I credit frequency healing for assisting. It absolutely (slowly) assisted my g lymphatic system.
