Do you know someone that may be Auditory Hypersensitive?

Our hi-fi earplugs are ideal for Little Super Heroes that have Auditory Hypersensitivity and find that events or busy environments easily put them into sensory overload.

'Auditory Overload' is when the brain becomes so overwhelmed by the amount of sound information it needs to process, that it:

  • cannot focus on other things it's supposed to be doing
  • cannot predict what will happen next based on the sensory information it's receiving (because it cannot process it for the moment), so therefore
  • cannot keep us safe, and if it stays there long enough
  • pops us automatically into a 'fight flight freeze' response which can look like anxiety, shallow breathing, grumpiness, faster heart rate, trouble completing a task already started, trouble remembering the steps of doing a simple task, and needing to leave the room quickly etc.

This overload may happen more easily to some people (eg. those with Autism, ADHD or Sensory Processing Disorder), as their brain can be literally structurally different to a neurotypical brain, and therefore struggle to integrate the sensory information coming in the way it should.  Therefore it may be paying WAY too much attention to the sounds in the environment... rather than ignoring sounds that are not important (gee... thanks brain! 🤦‍♀️).

Research and observation now shows that the issue isn't necessarily just really loud noise, or sudden noise.  It can just be a few different things going quietly at once (like conversations, music, kids playing nearby, a dog barking a few houses away, birds chirping over the back fence, and a dishwasher or similar quiet appliance going), that can really affect someone's overload and ability to regulate themselves!

Why not try some of our earplugs at the next family gathering and see if you notice a difference!

 

OUR EARPLUGS

  • Iconic 'Vibes Hi-Fi' brand (as seen on Shark Tank!)
  • Use amazing filter technology to balance the soundwaves whilst reducing the amount of noise coming in from the environment and therefore help with sensory overload and reduce the 'alert' response experience when there is a sudden loud sound
  • Direct conversation can still be heard without being muffled!
  • Can be used in a wide variety of settings – eg. school events, family gatherings, in shopping centres, when there's a loud noise at home like a lawnmower, and at concerts or sporting events

We have trialed and compared many different types of earplugs, and what we love about these is that they are the most comfortable out of the ones we tried, and that they are reusable, but are not just a foam or putty earplug... therefore bringing a much better sound quality. 

Your Little Super Hero will be able to wear these all day if they want to (even in the classroom), as they allow them to still hear clearly and interact socially!

Vibes Earplugs are sold separately and also in a bundle with our String Connector.
