1. A system for applying therapy, comprising:
a data store comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program of instructions;
a processor that executes the program of instructions, wherein the processor is configured to:
receive an image of an exterior portion of a face of a user,
receive characteristics about the user wearing a wearable actuator from the image, wherein the received characteristics are defined by at least two measured crano-facial points,
wherein at least two measured crano-facial points are configured to be defined by at least two of the following:
a distance between an eye edge of the user and a nostril edge of the user,
a distance between the nostril edge of the user's nose and a nasal midpoint of the user's nose,
a distance between a top portion of the user's nose and a top of the user's teeth,
a distance between a lowest point of the user's eye socket to the top of the user's teeth, and
a distance from an end of the user's nose cartilage to the top of the user's teeth;
determine, based on the received characteristics, a resonant frequency associated with the user;
communicate to the wearable actuator the resonant frequency, and
drive the wearable actuator to apply the resonant frequency to the user;
wherein the wearable actuator is configured to be worn on a frontal sinus of the user and to deliver the resonant frequency via sound.
