I understand... You are most likely forced by management to do stories like this. It must be horrible to know that you may responsible for spreading acceptance for claptrap like "Sound Therapy".
The least you can do is explain that hucksters have been around for thousands of years, preying upon the desperate members of society. Explain how these new-age con artists always seem to find a way around having their claims tested. How people end up ill (or worse) because of quack treatments such as homeopathy, herbalism, reiki and "Sound Therapy".
They will never accept it, but these criminals have the ability to prove that they are NOT frauds very easily. They can apply for the JREF $1 Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge.
I can only imagine their excuses for not applying. The one true reason, being exposed as frauds, will NEVER be mentioned by the frauds.
