This session featured Dr. Stephen Porges and Anthony Gorry, co-creators of Unyte Health’s newest listening therapy, the Rest and Restore Protocol™ (RRP), for an in-depth look at the science, design, and clinical potential of this innovative intervention.
In this session, we introduced RRP, explored the role of sound through the lens of therapeutic delivery and research, and highlighted how this new protocol, powered by Sonocea® Sonic Augmentation Technology, supports nervous system regulation. You’ll gain a clear understanding of listening therapies and how RRP differs from other sound-based approaches.
RRP is designed to support the body’s homeostatic functions, creating enhanced capacity for rest, recovery and restoration. Through Dr. Porges’ Polyvagal lens and shaped by Anthony Gorry’s deep personal and professional connection to music, sound and technology, plus Rebecca Knowles’ pilot research, our speakers shared meaningful results and comprehensive insights on how RRP can support your clients struggling with sleep hygiene, gastrointestinal issues, depression and anxiety.
We explored questions like:
- How can listening therapy play a role in my practice and support my clients?
- What are the benefits of RRP and what makes the intervention clinically therapeutic?
- What are the differences and similarities between Unyte Health’s Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) and Sonocea® Enhanced - Rest and Restore Protocol (RRP) being integrated with other modalities and clinical approaches?
