The Sleep Well Baby Store Now Offers White Noise Machines

October 05, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Health News
The Sleep Well Baby Store now offers white noise machines and natural sound conditioners. These sound machines mask ambient noise for sleep, privacy, and concentration. White noise contains all frequencies of sound that humans can hear—similar to the way the color white contains all colors. White noise generators are used to soothe colicky babies, provide privacy in offices, and help second shift workers sleep during daylight hours. Some people also use them for help with meditation or yoga. The Sleep Well Baby Store was recently featured in Redbook Magazine.

White noise machines have been around for decades and are considered safe. They are generally compact; yet they block a lot of sound considering their size. Some machines offer more than just white noise—they also have soothing sounds of rain, waterfalls, the ocean, or other nature sounds. Others combine these nature sounds with white noise. The volume is adjustable and some models come with timers so they will automatically turn off. Sleepwellbaby.com offers several different models depending on one's needs. The smaller models, such as the Marpac SleepMate 580, will work well in a small room or office cubicle, while the 980 is better for larger areas or masking louder noise. Several compact models are offered which are great for travel and jet lag recovery. White noise machines are also helpful in hotels to block out noise and hallway sounds.
