Dr. Murphy was participating in a BioAcoustic Vocal Profiling Training for medical professionals in which the class was evaluating the potential of pain relief using low-frequency sound. Being both skeptical and curious, Dr. Murphy inquired if there was a sound that would eliminate gout pain. His big toe often swelled, turned red and was very painful if he ingested certain foods or drink. Imbibing Whisky caused the most pain for him.
The class decided to set up an experiment as a group intervention. Sure enough, the sound frequency combination that had been identified the year before, not only relieved the pain almost instantly but began to obviously decrease the redness and swelling.
The event was recorded, and we are making the 2002 class video available to the public to show that Dr. Murphy was incredibly pleased that the sounds successfully relieved his discomfort. Link”: A Perspective on G-OUT https://tinyurl.com/62mdvjr6
Background from AI about Gout
“Gout, a form of inflammatory arthritis characterized by sudden and severe pain, swelling, and redness in the joints, has long been a source of discomfort and debilitation for those affected. Approximately 9.2 million people in the US experience gout pain flare-ups.
Traditionally managed through dietary modifications, medication, and lifestyle changes, recent advancements in health technology are exploring new ways to detect and manage gout that does not include debilitating gastrointestinal side effects. Online sources report that one such advancement is the emerging field of vocal biomarkers, a promising area that leverages voice analysis to diagnose and monitor health conditions. This innovative approach could provide new insights into gout and offer alternative pathways of pain relief.”
Understanding Gout: Causes and Symptoms
Gout is caused by an excess of uric acid in the blood, leading to the formation of sharp, needle-like crystals in the joints. This often results in intense pain, typically affecting the big toe but also other joints such as the lower back, ankles, knees, wrists, and fingers. The condition is often associated with a diet high in purines (found in red meat, shellfish, alcohol, and sugary drinks), hypertension, obesity, genetic mutations, kidney disease, other medical conditions, and certain medications. Recent studies have associated uric acid with diabetic joint pain. Gout frequencies can usually relieve such pain.
The symptoms of gout can be unpredictable, with flare-ups occurring suddenly, often without warning.
The pain can be excruciating, accompanied by swelling, warmth, and redness in the affected joints. Over time, recurring gout attacks can lead to chronic joint damage and other health complications.
