Sound familiar?

Your mind won’t stop
Thoughts on repeat, even in bed. You toss and turn for hours.

You wake up already tired
You sleep, but you don’t rest. Every morning starts on empty.

Zero energy
Coffee after coffee, but real clarity never comes back.

Reviews

Try it once. You’ll stay.

Our refund rate is 0.4%. Here’s why.

★★★★★
“I’d go to bed at 11pm and at 2am I’d still be lying there thinking about work, the kids, everything. I tried melatonin, herbal teas, podcasts — nothing. With INSOMNIA I fell asleep before it ended on the very first night. 14 months in and I haven’t missed a single evening.”
Chiara R. — subscriber for 14 months
★★★★★
“I was skeptical — ‘binaural beats, sure thing’. Then I tried RESET after a day when I couldn’t even think straight. 15 minutes later I was a different person. Now I use it 3-4 times a week. It’s my mental reset button.”
Marco T. — subscriber for 8 months
★★★★★
“The whole family uses it. My daughter uses FOCUS for studying, I use INSOMNIA in the evening, my wife uses RESET after work. The shared subscription was the best decision of the year.”
Giuseppe M. — subscriber for 2 years

Longevity

Stress ages you.
Science confirms it.

Chronic stress Cortisol ↑ Sleep ↓ Inflammation Accelerated ageing
+10 years
of additional biological age, linked to chronic stress
Epel et al., Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004

Cortisol — the stress hormone — when chronically elevated, compromises sleep quality and can trigger silent inflammation linked to cellular ageing. The result? A vicious cycle that impacts your quality of life: energy, clarity, mood, appearance.

Effetto Viola is designed to help break this cycle.
It’s not a supplement. It’s not a drug. It’s sound neurotechnology that promotes the right brainwaves for every moment.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The DMSPS algorithm introduces a calibrated phase misalignment between the right and left earphone, generating dynamic, multi-layered binaural beats. These guide your brain towards the desired frequencies. You put on headphones, press play, and listen for 15 minutes. The technology does the rest.
Most users report effects from the very first session. The INSOMNIA program lasts about 15 minutes and many fall asleep before it ends. No practice or consistency required — it works every time you use it.
Yes. The annual plan includes up to 10 accounts, the monthly up to 5. You can share it with family, friends or colleagues. Each person gets their own separate account.
With one click from your account — no need to contact anyone. For the monthly plan, you can request a refund within 12 days of renewal if you haven’t used the app. Full details in our Terms and Conditions. Our refund rate is 0.4% — try it once, you’ll stay.
No, any stereo headphones will work. Even your phone earbuds. The only requirement is that they’re stereo (separate right and left earphones) because the technology works on the difference between the two channels.
Yes! Effetto Viola has been a Trenitalia partner for five consecutive years. You can use it for free on board Frecciarossa and Frecciargento trains via the FRECCIAPlay portal. CartaFRECCIA holders also get 50% off the subscription.
You always use Effetto Viola through the app (iOS and Android) and the price is identical. The difference lies in the benefits.

Buying here on the website: you can share the subscription with family or colleagues (up to 5 or 10 accounts), you get refund protection within 12 days, and you can request an invoice.

Buying through the app (Google/Apple): access is limited to a single device, no refund is available, and invoices cannot be issued.

Less overthinking. More rest.

All you need is headphones and 15 minutes.
