There is a German composer called Peter Hubner who composes healing music which is commercially available.
Hubner found that the cells of the body react to the musical scale used by Pythagoras (perhaps this is the same as the Solfeggio scale) and not to the modern western orchestral scale. The Pythagorean scale is flatter (lower in frequency) than the modern orchestral scale

In Chinese medicine the five main organs of the body are said to resonate
with one of the five notes used in Chinese music . Chinese music uses a pentatonic (five note) scale as opposed to the western heptatonic (seven
note) scale
The Western seven note scale can be approximated to the Chinese five note scale and the organs affected by it as follows:
WESTERN NOTE----------Chinese Element--------------------ORGANS
C---------------------------WATER----------------------KIDNEY and BLADDER
A and B---------------------WOOD-------------------LIVER and GALLBLADDER
G-----------------------------FIRE----------------HEART and SMALL INTESTINE
F and E-----------------------EARTH--------------SPLEEN and STOMACH
D------------------------------METAL--------------LUNG and LARGE INTESTINE
The above information is from a combination of information given to me and from my own research.
Recordings of traditional Chinese pentatonic healing music can be bought from a number of sources.
See http://www.spiritwinds.com/music//TCD-3114-2.mp3
for more information and examples.
Finally no discussion of music and its effect on the human organism would be complete without a mention of the Russian mystic G.I. Gurdjieff who collected a body of sacred music and dance from monasteries in the East.
Gurdjieff taught that the whole universe from finest energy to coarsest matter could be expressed in three musical octaves.
Type "G.I. Gurdjieff" into YouTube to see and hear examples of the music and dances taught by him.
