What is the Safe and Sound Protocol?
​The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is a powerful ​ evidence-based listening therapy therapy designed to help regulate the nervous system, so you can better connect with yourself, others and the world around you. SSP involves listening to specially filtered music through headphones alongside a provider, in-person or remotely to re-tune the nervous system to better support connection, collaboration and resilience.
​
This along with other changes which affect the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) allows for the repatterining of neural networks and improved regulation. As a result it promotes a deeper sense of calm and connection; enhancing mental and physical wellbeing.
The SSP has demonstrated clinical benefits for individuals with a trauma history, anxiety, sensory processing differences, parkisons disease, long covid, CFS/ME, stroke and neurodevelopmental differences, such as autism, hyperactivity an attention.​​
