Abstract in brief

This scoping review explores how different sound interventions like music, natural sounds, and speech can impact stress levels in adults, highlighting that music, especially classical and self-chosen pieces, generally helps reduce physiological markers of stress such as cortisol and heart rate.
It emphasizes that factors like individual preferences, cultural context, and the way sounds are delivered influence the effectiveness of these interventions, and notes that while most sound therapies are beneficial, some may also cause stress depending on the situation.
The review points out current gaps in research, particularly on nonmusical sounds and the neural mechanisms behind sound-based stress reduction, suggesting that future studies should focus on personalizing sound therapies and better understanding how they work in the brain.
