Under the direction of Dr. Jose Salvador Hernandez Gonzalez and on behalf of the Department of Social Security for Mexico, 25 patients were exposed to both video and audio Freedom From Dental Anxiety tapes for thirty minutes prior to treatment and thirty minutes during treatment. The conclusion:

"the use of InnerTalk® before an integral odontologic treatment is 100% effective, reducing patient's anxiety and the noise made by the high speed hand piece used in this type of work, and furthermore, reducing the pain suffered by comparison to previous experience." The report goes on to recommend InnerTalk®: "Therefore it is convenient to promote, among Dental Surgeons, the use of InnerTalk® to improve their patients comfort and achieve a better collaboration to treatments. In the same way, use will change the Estomologist image (feared for so many years).

Combining Whole Brain® InnerTalk® Weight Loss audio and video with Echo-Talk audio and a special nutritional program developed and marketed by Oxyfresh International, Dr. Harbans S.

Thomas Plant, faculty member of Stanford University and Director of the mental health services for the Children's Health Council, together with Michael DiGregorio and Gerdenio Manuel of Santa Clara University, evaluated the effect of Whole Brain® on test anxiety in a double blind experiment. The statistical data indicated significance supporting the hypothesis that Whole Brain® subliminal technology could be an effective tool in lowering test anxiety.

1993
Kim Roche of Phoenix University studied the effect of Whole Brain® with children diagnosed as having Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder in a double blind experiment. Her findings indicated a significantly positive effect.

Experimental psychologist, Julian Isaacs, investigated the effects of the following Whole Brain® programs; "No More Procrastination", "Time Management", "Confidence Power", "Freedom From Stress", "Positive Relationships", "I Am Assertive", and "High Self Esteem." After three studies, it was concluded that the programs produced significant positive results that were verifiable.

A double blind study was carried out at Weber State University on the effects of the Whole Brain® program "Freedom From Stress." The psychological test results showed a significant decrease in stress.

1990
In a double blind study carried out at Colorado State University, it was found that using the Whole Brain® program "Freedom From Depression" for more than 17 hours, led to a significant decrease on the Beck Depression scale. This study not only shows the effectiveness of the Whole Brain® program, but also indicated that the effectiveness of the programs were dosage related.

1988-1990
Cosmetic Surgeon, R. Youngblood and surgical staff tested the effect of the Whole Brain® "Pre And Post Operative" tape on 360 patients. They reported a decrease in anesthetic requirements of 32% by volume as compared to a historical control group.

1985-1986
In a double blind study at the Utah State Prison, which was performed by McCusker, Liston and Taylor, the Whole Brain® technology was deemed effective in altering self esteem among inmates. As a result, the Utah State Prison installed and maintains a voluntary tape library for inmates.

Numerous clinical studies with single and multiple subjects have also found effectiveness with Whole Brain® in areas as diverse as anorexia to dyslexia. Additionally, Whole Brain® has been credited by professional coaches for significantly contributing to winning sports events ranging from football championships to National and Olympic judo medals.
