Systems and methods are provided for treating a living being with multiple, concurrent, superimposed non-phase-locked signals, at physiologically acceptable intensities and duty cycles such that the signals entrain the tissue. Preferred signals are electromagnetic, and at least one of the frequencies is selected from the list consisting of 7.6 Hz +/−2 Hz. 70.25 Hz+/−0.25 Hz, 71.25 Hz+/−0.25 Hz, and 3040 Hz +/−10 Hz. Among other things, it is contemplated that the signals can be used to create a subjective reduction in pain, mood improvement, to treat osteoporosis, to enhance cardiac function, and/or affect the hypothalamic pituitary axis.
