Safe & Sound Protocol at Biio uses specifically filtered music to gently stimulate the vagus nerve and improve autonomic nervous system function—addressing the dysregulation that underlies many symptoms in dysautonomia, POTS, and post-viral conditions. While traditional therapies focus on symptom management, SSP works directly with your nervous system's capacity to differentiate between safe and dangerous signals, helping restore the natural regulation that chronic illness often disrupts.
Our SSP-certified clinical psychologist understands that autonomic dysfunction creates a nervous system stuck in protective mode, where normal activities trigger disproportionate stress responses. Through carefully designed auditory sessions, SSP helps retrain these neural pathways, supporting your vagus nerve's ability to activate the "rest and digest" state essential for healing and regulation. This targeted approach addresses the hypervigilance and sensory overwhelm that compound your physical symptoms.
1. Comprehensive Autonomic Assessment
Your initial consultation includes detailed autonomic symptom mapping, trauma history evaluation, and nervous system response patterns documentation. We assess how your dysautonomia or post-viral condition affects your sense of safety, social connection, and physiological regulation while identifying specific triggers that activate your defensive responses.
2. Personalised SSP Protocol Development
Based on your autonomic presentation and symptom severity, we design a tailored SSP intervention plan addressing your specific nervous system dysregulation patterns. This includes determining optimal session frequency, duration adjustments for post-exertional malaise considerations, and integration strategies that work within your current energy and cognitive limitations.
3. Digital Platform Training and Setup
You'll receive comprehensive instruction on accessing a secure SSP digital platform, including technical support and troubleshooting guidance. We ensure you understand the filtered music technology, proper headphone requirements, and how to optimise your listening environment for maximum therapeutic benefit while respecting your sensory sensitivities.
4. Active Treatment Implementation
Your treatment consists of 15-minute SSP sessions delivered via our digital platform, typically 2-3 times weekly based on your tolerance and response patterns. Each session uses specifically filtered music to stimulate vagal pathways while we monitor your autonomic responses, energy levels, and any changes in symptom patterns through detailed tracking protocols.
5. Progress Monitoring and Protocol Refinement
Regular clinical sessions track improvements in autonomic regulation, stress response flexibility, and overall nervous system resilience. We adjust session frequency and duration based on your response patterns documented through our biiography platform, ensuring your SSP treatment evolves with your recovery while preventing overwhelm or symptom exacerbation.
6. Integration and Self-Regulation Mastery
You'll develop sophisticated understanding of your nervous system's responses and learn to recognise early signs of dysregulation before they cascade into symptom flares. We provide strategies for maintaining autonomic stability between sessions and integrating SSP benefits with your other treatments for sustained nervous system resilience.
