Phase harmony in de Broglie theory relates a local periodic phenomenon (the 'particle clock') to a periodic propagating field in such a way that relativistic invariance is satisfied. If a similar phenomenon in the cell is relevant it should couple the global oscillation pattern locally with periodic (mechanic, electric, biochemical ???) processes. It is known that cancer changes the mechanical properties of cells. I know too little about phonon healing to judge its relevance.

Joanna gives an excellent Sound therapy talk for TedX - and posts the new cymatic atomic force sound imaging.
Dr. Manfred Euler: Can you compare and corroborate this research with your own de Broglie Law of Phase Harmony sound analysis?
Recently[when?], he has undertaken research in biophysics, which he calls sonocytology. With UCLA graduate student Andrew Pelling, Gimzewski published sonocytology's debut report in the August 2004 issue of Science magazine. In the sonocytology studies, a Bioscope AFM (atomic force microscope) was modified to be able to detect the vibrations of the cell wall of a living cell. These vibrations, once amplified using computer software, created audible sound, and it was discovered that cancerous cells emit a slightly different sound than healthy cells do. Gimzewski and Pelling hope that sonocytology may someday have applications in early cancer detection and diagnosis.

What is life? What is water? What is sound? In Sounding the Limits of Life, anthropologist Stefan Helmreich investigates how contemporary scientists—biologists, oceanographers, and audio engineers—are redefining these crucial concepts. Life, water, and sound are phenomena at once empirical and abstract, material and formal, scientific and social. In the age of synthetic biology, rising sea levels, and new technologies of listening, these phenomena stretch toward their conceptual snapping points, breaching the boundaries between the natural, cultural, and virtual.
Through examinations of the computational life sciences, marine biology, astrobiology, acoustics, and more, Helmreich follows scientists to the limits of these categories. Along the way, he offers critical accounts of such other-than-human entities as digital life forms, microbes, coral reefs, whales, seawater, extraterrestrials, tsunamis, seashells, and bionic cochlea. He develops a new notion of "sounding"—as investigating, fathoming, listening—to describe the form of inquiry appropriate for tracking meanings and practices of the biological, aquatic, and sonic in a time of global change and climate crisis.
Sounding the Limits of Life shows that life, water, and sound no longer mean what they once did, and that what count as their essential natures are under dynamic revision.

CHAPTER 2. Myth and the origin of the Pythagorean veil
Brian Kane Acousmatic Sound Unseen 2014 book
The term acousmatique was coined by the critic Jérôme Peignot as a more accurate description of what composer Pierre Schaeffer labeled musique concrète: compositions created by manipulating, mixing and arranging pre-recorded sounds that intentionally downplayed or obscured the origins of the material. Peignot drew on the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras, who was said to have lectured to his initiate disciplines from behind a veil, so as to force them to better consider the meaning of his words. These disciples were required to remain silent, their sole duty but to listen to the master’s voice.In his first monograph, Sound Unseen: The Theory and Practice of Acousmatic Sound, Brian Kane uncovers a history of acousmatic sound independent of the legacy of Schaeffer and Pythagoras in order to articulate a rather distinct approach to the study of sound that transcends the divisions between musicology and sound studies.Author of this article lives in Minneapolis!
Oh not any more - Joseph Sannicandro did his Ph.D. at U of MN and moved back to Toronto.

Den mystiska akusmatiken
Published in Nutida Musik, 3 (2008): 36-42, ©2008 International Society for Contemporary Music
This is a Swedish translation of a talk entitled, “L’acousmatique mythique: reconsidering the acousmatic reduction and the Pythagorean veil,” delivered at the EMS08 conference in Paris, commemorating the 60th anniversary of musique concréte. It is availble in the EMS08 proceedings. In it, I compare two readings of the Pythagorean veil in ancient sources, Iamblichus’ Life of Pythagoras and Clement of Alexandria’s Stromata, to address the mythic construction of the Schaefferian acousmatic tradition and its preference for Iamblichus. I also draw out some implications of the two readings for current and future acousmatic theory.

So it's binaural beats healing based on octave transduction.
