THE CAT'S PURR and Sounds that Heal by Paula Peterson Earthcode International Network Elizabeth's research into the cat's purr has brought her a great deal of support from many sources, including veterinarians. She has also received support from a professor emeritus in England who is known as the "Grandfather of Bones." He is the foremost authority on bone density. She declined giving his name since she didn't have his permission. Interestingly, he writes that optimal frequency for bone stimulation is 50 hertz. The dominant and fundamental frequency for three species of cats' purrs is exactly 25 to 50 hertz �the best frequencies for bone growth and fracture healing. The cat's purr falls well within the 20 � 50 hertz anabolic range, and extends up to 140 hertz. All members of the cat family except cheetahs have a dominant or strong harmonic at 50 hertz. The harmonics of three cat species fall exactly on or within 2 points of 120 hertz, a frequency which has been found to repair tendons. The type of frequencies that are found in the cat's purr are good for healing muscle, tendon, and ligament injuries, as well as for muscle strengthening and toning. They are good for any type of joint injury, wound healing, reduction of infection and swelling, pain relief, and relief of chronic pulmonary disease. Authors of the veterinarians' surgery manual say that what it basically comes down to is that, compared to other animals, cats simply don't get chronic pulmonary disease, muscle and tendon injuries, bone diseases, and a lot of other things that dogs get. The purr seems to be a constant strengthener and toner for the muscles.

The purr seems to be a constant strengthener and toner for the muscles. she read in National Geographic about this researcher who had put chickens on a vibrating plank for twenty minutes a day and their bones grew. She thought that was weird. So she called him and asked what the anabolic frequencies for bones were. He said that they were anywhere between 20 and 90 hertz, but that there is evidence suggesting that between 25 hertz and 50 hertz are the best frequencies. The next day, she got up, went into the living room, grabbed her big tomcat, Spot, began petting him, and turned on the microphone. Then she ran the recording through the computer. And guess what? Oh, my God. After that, she started doing a search in the literature, and found that 25 hertz is the fundamental frequency. In other words, it's the first, or primal, frequency. After the first frequency, there is something called harmonics. Harmonics are always a multiple of the fundamental �meaning that if the fundamental is 25 hertz, the first harmonic is 50, then the second harmonic is 75, the third harmonic is 100, and so for I wonder �is it helpful for people to hold their purring cat close to their bodies? Elizabeth says that from a scientific standpoint she would have to say she doesn't know since there is no evidence. She goes on to say that for something to be scientifically therapeutic, it has to be exactly the right strength, loudness, and amplitude. However, she did say that as a "healer," she says "yes, it absolutely" can be helpful to sleep with you cat. Those of you who have cats may have noticed that when you're not feeling well, your cat will often come up to the part of your body that's aching and start to knead you with their paws, purr, and get that meditative look in their eyes. They could be trying to help. �by Paula Peterson 2003 You may link to this page by using ~ http://www.paulapeterson.com/CatsPurr.h As I practise and teach Taoist Healing sounds where one makes a sound and arm movements to link to an organ and the corresponding meridian I was very interested in the article mentioning that the chest cavity not the voice, could replicate the right frequency.
