What Is The Safe And Sound Protocol?

The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is an acoustic vagus nerve stimulator developed by Dr. Stephen Porges based on his Polyvagal Theory. The purpose of this auditory intervention is to help your clients access a physiological state conducive to well-being, positive engagement with others, and growth in learning and therapy.

By helping to access this calm and grounded state, the SSP promotes a neural platform for health, growth and restoration in patients experiencing the following challenges:

• Anxiety
• Inattention and Focus
• Auditory sensitivities
• Behavioral Regulation and Resilience 
• Physical Coordination and Balance
• Reading and Auditory Processing
• Sleep
• Speech and Language 
• Social and emotional difficulties
• Trauma and PTSD
• Stressors that impact social engagement
• And many more
