Safe and Sound Protocol
About the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is an evidence-based listening therapy designed to reduce sound sensitivities and improve auditory processing, behavioral state regulation, and social engagement behaviors through filtered music. As a practical application of Polyvagal Theory, the SSP acts as a non-invasive, acoustic vagal nerve stimulator, helping to re-tune the nervous system to better support connection, collaboration and resilience. The SSP involves listening to specially filtered music through headphones alongside a provider, in-person or remotely. Suitable for children and adults, the SSP has demonstrated benefits for individuals with trauma, anxiety, sensory processing differences and more.

Highlights of the SSP:
● A five-hour auditory intervention developed and patented by Dr. Stephen Porges, author of the Polyvagal Theory.
● Designed to reduce sound sensitivity, and improve auditory processing and behavioral state regulation.
● Activates the client’s social engagement system, helping to accelerate and enhance therapeutic outcomes.
● Supports physiological state regulation, allowing for greater resilience.


Rest and Restore Protocol
Rest and Restore ProtocolTM (RRP) is an innovative, clinical-grade listening therapy designed to help calm and restore mental and physical functioning. RRP is informed by decades of research studying physiological rhythms in the body, including heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, and in the gut, alongside deep knowledge of advanced sound technology to support deep relaxation and optimal recovery for clients. Beyond listening, you do not have to "do" anything to experience the benefits of RRP.
How It Works
The music of RRP is enhanced by Sonocea®, an innovative, patent-pending technology that uses sound acoustics through music to sync with the natural biological rhythms of the body. Stimulating these natural rhythms send cues of safety to the nervous system, promoting healing functions that aid in mental and physical restoration.


Supports Many Symptoms and Conditions RRP may be helpful in reducing symptoms and supporting overall health and resiliency for people seeking support for:
-
