Something smells fishy; I've tried to sniff out any scientific data on this device but I can't even find get a whiff of any.

Just listening to the right sounds alters your state of consciousness - see http://www.monroeinstitute.org for how that works - and synchronized light and sound is hardly new. Breath control certainly helps with meditation, so, all in all, it ought to work. Now, if it just didn't look so goofy.

You can do relaxation breathing without head gear and, to borrow a great phrase, a new age snot catcher. With the added advantage of not looking like an idiot.
