Helps improve nervous system regulation in children and adults to support many symptoms and conditions.
Backed by clinical trials and real-world evidence, and informed by Dr. Stephen Porges’ Polyvagal Theory.
Enhances and accelerates the impact of other therapies, such as CBT, EMDR, SE, IFS, and neurodevelopmental treatments.
How does the Safe and Sound Protocol work?
The music of the SSP has been filtered through a patented, evidence-based algorithm that highlights specific sound frequencies that help regulate the autonomic nervous system and stimulate the vagus nerve. What this means for you and your clients:
Providers report that the SSP “opens up” their clients and relaxes their defenses, improving accessibility.
As a result, clients often experience quicker progress, becoming more engaged in therapy.
The SSP helps accelerate results and improve therapeutic outcomes.
Once integrated, the SSP often becomes an essential part of a clinical approach.
Impactful, long-lasting results for your clients are possible.
What does the music sound like?
The SSP contains several vocal and non-vocal music playlists and levels of filtration to help you support client engagement and participation in the listening process. Multiple vocal and non-vocal playlists allow the SSP to be accessible to many populations, and allow you to customize delivery for your client.
