Abstract

The present invention relates to a sound generating apparatus, a sound generating space, a sound, and a method for generating a sound. A sound is generated which has a frequency within a first frequency range beyond a predetermined audible frequency range and up to a predetermined maximum frequency. The sound is non-stationary so as to change in a micro-temporal area in a second frequency range beyond 10 kHz. The generated sound is then applied to a person, thereby increasing cerebral blood flow of the person, which causes an improvement and an enhancement of the person's state of mind and body, so as to relieve stresses, thereby relaxing the person.
