A cat’s purr vibrates at frequencies that may promote bone healing

Purr vibrations often fall around 20–50 Hz — frequency bands that some studies link to bone and muscle recovery cues.

Cats purr when content, stressed, or injured, so the sound is more than a happiness ringtone. Research is still sorting cause from coincidence.

A soft motor may be medicine-adjacent. Even if the healing claim stays cautious, the body is broadcasting at a biologically interesting pitch.
