Olav Skille is one of the main pioneers and innovators of Vibroacoustic Therapy (VAT). Olav has over thirty years of wisdom in applied research collaboration, therapeutic work with disabled children and people with chronic disease, training therapists around the world and creating low sound solutions that correlate with relief of pain, stress and various illness symptoms. Researchers on VAT often quote and base their acquired knowledge on Olav Skille’s wisdom. (para. 1) According to Bill Gochenour (2015) of MindBody Connection, regarding vibroacoustic therapy, Vibroacoustic technology has experienced widespread use in hospitals, healthcare facilities, wellness programs, education, and corporate organizations as well as being used extensively in private settings. Vibroacoustic technologies were first developed in Scandinavia, between 1970 and 1980 independently by Olav Skille and Petri Kehikoinen. The U.S. based Somatron Corporation began distributing designs in 1985. Since then, the technology has continued to evolve with new and more refined designs. (para. 2) The second company chosen was Somatron®, since its product was used in research conducted by the National Institutes of Health. According to Boyd-Brewer (2003), regarding the use of vibroacoustic therapy for stress and anxiety, Relaxation and resultant anxiety reduction have been continuously noted, as significant outcomes of VAT, by technology designers and researchers. At the 1994 National Association of Music Therapy Conference, in Los Angeles, CA, George Patrick, Ph.D., Chief of Recreation Therapy at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), presented the theory that VAT triggers the relaxation response and that this state is responsible for many stress-mediated medical and nursing care benefits of vibroacoustics.
