How HealthTunes works.

A non-profit clinical music platform, not a wellness app.

Every playlist on HealthTunes is built around a specific condition, not a mood. Binaural beats play two slightly different frequencies in each ear; your brain perceives the difference and synchronizes to it, shifting toward states linked to calm, focus, or sleep. Isochronic tones achieve a similar effect through rhythmic pulses. Both are embedded into music you actually choose to listen to.

No prescription, no appointment, headphones required. Try it for one month free, no credit card needed.

01

Choose your condition

Select from anxiety, sleep, depression, focus, and more, then pick the genres you already enjoy.

02

Listen with headphones

Stereo earbuds or over-ear headphones. Separate audio in each ear is what makes the binaural effect work.

03

Feel the shift

Many listeners notice a difference within a session. Use this alongside your existing care, never instead of it.

Questions

HealthTunes is a non-profit music streaming platform that combines curated music with binaural beats and isochronic tones, personalized to specific health conditions. Founded by Univ.-Prof. Walter Werzowa and developed in clinical partnership with UCLA Health, Wellstar Health System, and the NHS.
No. HealthTunes is a complementary support, designed to work alongside your existing care, not replace it. If you're managing depression, anxiety, or Alzheimer's, please continue working with your healthcare team. HealthTunes does not diagnose, treat, or cure any medical condition.
Yes. Headphones are required for binaural beats to work. Standard stereo earbuds or over-ear headphones both work. Speakers still deliver the music experience, but the therapeutic layer, the binaural effect, requires separate audio in each ear.
Your first month is free, no credit card needed to start. After that, the subscription is 4.99 USD or 4.99 EUR per month, depending on your location. As a non-profit, we aim to keep pricing as accessible as possible.
HealthTunes does not sell or share your data. As a non-profit, there is no commercial incentive to monetize your information. Your health condition and listening history remain private. Full details in our Privacy Policy.
