QiTone

QiTone is a personalized sound experience inspired by more than 3,000 years of Chinese medicine.
Designed and developed by Candice Nelms, Dipl. OM, Diplomate of Oriental Medicine, QiTone was created to make Chinese medicine more accessible through immersive music and guided sound journeys.
QiTone combines frequency-based tones, music, traditional Chinese medicine frameworks, and optional binaural neural audio for calm, focus, rest, performance, meditation, and emotional balance.
Rather than requiring you to understand complex Chinese medical theory, QiTone translates it into sound.
The app draws from the Five Elements, organ clock, Stems & Branches, seasonal cycles, Qi pathways, and relationships between body systems. Sessions can adapt to your goals, constitutional profile, time of day, season, and how you feel in the moment.
ANCIENT PRINCIPLES. MODERN SOUND.
Traditional Five Element tones provide the foundation. Immersive music carries the experience. Personalized protocols determine how the tones work together.
With compatible stereo headphones, QiTone can add an optional binaural Guide Layer — subtle left-and-right audio designed to support the intended mental state of the session, from calm and focused attention to meditation, performance, deep rest, and sleep preparation.
The Guide Layer complements the Chinese medicine protocol: the tonal system determines the body-system focus while the binaural layer supports the state of mind for the journey.
A SOUND JOURNEY SHAPED AROUND YOU
QiTone can use your birth date, time, and location to create a personalized Stems & Branches profile, bringing traditional constitutional and timing principles into your listening experience.
That profile can be considered alongside:
- How you feel right now
- What you want from the session
- The current organ-clock period
- The season and solar cycle
- Five Element relationships
- Your constitutional tendencies
The result is not simply a playlist. It is a sound journey that can change with you.
