Safe and Sound Protocol
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 retune 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 may be helpful in reducing symptoms
and supporting overall health and resiliency for
people seeking support for:
-
Trauma history
-
Depression and anxiety
-
Autism, hyperactivity and attention
-
Chronic pain
-
Chronic health conditions
-
Sensory and auditory processing
