Theta Chamber technology allows for rapid and complete recovery from depression, anxiety, PTSD, and addiction

At Theta Wellness Centers, our scientific approach to brain health combines multiple, cutting-edge technologies to give you the best possible results. We’ve spent over 25 years researching and perfecting neurological modalities that are shown to begin normalizing brain chemistry within minutes, not months!


The modern Theta Chamber is the state-of-the-art version of a chamber that was originally developed by Loran Swensen in 1989, called the Omega Brain 5000. The ThetaChamber℠ treats anxiety, stress, depression, insomnia, and addictions of all kinds using multiple, powerful treatments in a comfortable, relaxing environment. Treats neurological issues at their root.

Binaural Audio Beats

  • Designed to bring the brain into a Theta state, subtle pulses or “beats” are created when slightly offset tones are played through headphones. This effect was discovered in 1839 by Heinrich Wilhelm Dove. The effect on brainwaves depends on the difference in frequencies of each tone: for example, if 300 Hz was played in one ear and 310 in the other, then the binaural beat would have a frequency of 10 Hz. The beats synchronize the cerebral hemispheres and help produce the correct conditions for neural pathway re-establishment (also known as “entrainment”). Deep relaxation during treatment is the result.

Visual Pattern Light Stimulation

  • Light patterns are computer-generated and calibrated to synchronize with the binaural beats to (1) quickly induce the Theta state, (2) open the brain to suggestion and entrainment, and (3) promote specific healing rhythms. Light and sound sensory stimulation access the brain through the thalamus, which is directly connected to the cortex. Light and sound rhythms and patterns can easily influence cortical activity, and can also affect neuronal activity when synchronized correctly. The ThetaChamber℠ uses computer technology to precisely generate and synchronize these light and sound patterns together with microcurrent signaling (see below) for a maximum positive effect.

Microcurrent Signaling

This FDA-cleared treatment uses precisely tuned, subtle electrical impulses to affect the neural networks and neurochemistry of the brain, encouraging normal function. These electric signals are similar to those produced by the brain itself. As an electro-chemical instrument, the brain constantly both produces and receives a wide variety of signals, from one region of the brain to another, and through the nervous system to all parts of the body.


Once the brain has reached the Theta state and is open to suggestion, change and healing, the ThetaChamber℠ transmits gentle, natural-like signals to the hypothalamus, in the limbic region of the brain.

These signals encourage the hypothalamus to start producing normal, healthy levels of serotonin, dopamine and other neurotransmitters. Over the course of just a few applications of these signals, the brain is entrained into normal functionality, as new neural pathways are created and the old, addicted or imbalanced one’s atrophy.


Through decades of research and testing, doctors have been able to determine the precise frequencies, waveforms, amplitudes and signal strength needed to treat certain conditions such as anxiety, depression and insomnia, as well as addiction to substances and stimuli such as opiates, barbiturates, alcohol, nicotine, marijuana, cocaine, heroin, and pornography. Each one requires a different, specific and precise setting for maximum effectiveness.

Facts About ThetaChamber℠ Technology

The ThetaChamber℠ is designed to administer multiple, powerful treatment applications in a single session. These applications are designed to accomplish three main objectives:

  1. Induce a “Theta” brainwave state, opening the brain to suggestion, learning and healing
  2. Signal the hypothalamus to return to producing normal levels of serotonin, dopamine and other neurotransmitters
  3. Encourage the brain to create and use new, normal neural pathways (also known as “entrainment”)

These various treatment applications, known as “modalities,” work together synergistically to provide maximum effectiveness. Modalities currently available in the ThetaChamber℠ are:

  • Binaural Audio Beats (induces Theta state, assists in entrainment)
  • Visual pattern light stimulation (induces Theta state, assists in entrainment)
  • Vestibular (motion) stimulation (induces Theta state, assists in entrainment)
  • Microcurrent signaling (signals the hypothalamus to recalibrate brain chemistry)
  • Audio relaxation tracks (provides positive affirmations and promotes relaxation)

When all these forms of therapy are combined and synchronized, they elicit a very powerful and pronounced neurological and physiological response. Feelings of well-being are almost immediate for many clients, often starting the very first day! Some report deep sleep and vivid dreams for the first time in years.

About Brainwaves

Brainwaves, also known as neural oscillations, are observed throughout the central nervous system and at all levels which can be measured by electroencephalography (EEG). In general, EEG signals have a broad spectral content (similar to pink noise), but also reveal oscillatory activity in specific frequency bands. The best-known band is “Alpha” activity (8-12 Hz) that can be detected in the brain during relaxed wakefulness.


Other frequency bands are “Beta” (13-30 Hz) which corresponds with mental alertness and concentration, “Gamma” (30-70 Hz) which is associated with cognitive processing, “Theta” (4-8 Hz) which is associated with relaxation and near-sleep, and “Delta” (1-4 Hz) which occurs during sleep. When the brain is producing Theta waves (in a conscious, dreamlike state of near-sleep or hypnosis), it is most open to suggestion, change and healing.

Old vs. New Techniques

Starting in the late 1950’s when it was discovered as a method of pain relief, microcurrent stimulation has been administered in many ways, and under many conditions. Early on, a device was developed that administered microcurrent signals through the earlobes into the brain. The device was worn by the patient for 23 hours each day, for many weeks, in order to have the desired effect (such as treatment of heroin addiction, anxiety, depression, or insomnia).


Today, with the advent of the ThetaChamber℠, treatment can be accomplished much faster and more effectively because it is administered only while the brain is in the Theta state, which is induced and held for 30 minutes per session, two times per day. The result is nearly a full hour of continuous Theta state in each 24-hour period, which is far more than a person typically experiences. In this way, the total elapsed time of treatment is dramatically reduced from 23 hours down to just 2, yet the overall effectiveness of the treatment is increased because it is administered while the brain is most capable of receiving it.

The ThetaChamber℠ and its associated treatments are:

  • Science-based
  • Medically supervised
  • Safe and affordable
  • Private and discreet
  • Comfortable and relaxing
  • Often successful when other therapies failed
