Hi there!
Just as a disclaimer before I start: I am new to physics and new to these forums, so please be kind if I say anything that seems silly to those who know more than me on the subject. :)
I've been looking at this old thread about the human body and frequencies, linked below, due to a sudden interest in sonic warfare after having a strange dream. And it seems that at the time there were some discrepancies. At the same time as looking at this, I was listening to a conversation between people who had sat for large tattoo pieces. They were saying that for a day or so after getting the tattoo, they always felt very sick, as if they had the 'flu.
So I sort of have two questions/discussions:
1) Do you think it could be at all possible that there could be any connection between long exposure to the frequency of the vibration of a tattoo pen, and this 'uncomfortable' feeling described? (Beyond simply being a response to the pain or simply the vestibular system being overworked?) A tattoo website says that the usual frequencies used are between 100-150HZ. Or would the frequency need to be much much lower to have an effect?
2) And secondly, does anyone know of any recent peer-reviewed and published material on frequencies of the body more generally? I have a good book from the library, however it is from 1976 so I am unsure whether any of this has been debunked since then.
