About HealthTunes

Music, rigorously applied
to human health.

HealthTunes is a California-based non-profit streaming service. We combine clinically curated music with binaural beats and isochronic tones — personalized to your condition, available whenever you need it.

Mission

Why we exist.

Pharmaceutical interventions for anxiety, depression, and sleep disorders come with side effects, cost, and access barriers. Music does not. Yet until now, no platform had built a rigorous, science-informed music service specifically designed to support — not merely accompany — health conditions.

HealthTunes was founded to close that gap. As a non-profit, our incentive is health outcomes, not engagement metrics. We work with clinical partners to validate our approach and make the evidence available publicly.

Music personalized to your preferred genre, embedded with precisely calibrated binaural beats and isochronic tones, available at any hour without a prescription or appointment.

Walter Werzowa
Founder & University Professor

Walter Werzowa is a composer, professor, and audio researcher whose work sits at the intersection of music and medicine. After a career in professional music production — including composing some of the most recognized audio signatures in history — he turned his focus to the clinical application of sound, founding HealthTunes as a non-profit to bring rigorously curated music to people living with anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, chronic pain, and cognitive decline.

His academic background informs every aspect of HealthTunes' design: the choice of frequency ratios, the calibration of binaural beats per condition, and the ongoing partnerships with clinical institutions including UCLA Health and Wellstar Health System. Walter holds multiple US patents for the adaptive audio therapy technology at the core of the platform.

HealthTunes represents his conviction that music's therapeutic potential has been under-deployed — and that a non-profit model, free from commercial pressure, is the right vehicle to change that.
