Rest and Restore Protocol Handout

Rest and Restore Protocol™  

A new listening therapy developed to support healing, restoration and homeostasis. 

Rest and Restore Protocol™ is designed to promote deep relaxation, recovery, balance in the body and mind, and connection to self, cultivating interoception and self-regulation.

RRP targets the healing qualities of the autonomic nervous system, helping to improve physical and mental well-being.

Early research shows RRP may improve sleep, digestion, anxiety, trauma-recovery, and more.

Can only be used by therapists, including mental and neurodevelopmental health and medical practitioners.

Rest and Restore Protocol™ is Sonocea® Enhanced, an innovative, patent-pending sound technology.

There’s no place like homeostasis. Return to yourself through the transformative power of sound.

Developed by Dr. Stephen Porges and Anthony Gorry, Rest and Restore Protocol™ (RRP) is an innovative, clinical-grade listening therapy designed to help calm and restore mental and physical functioning.

RRP is informed by decades of research studying physiological rhythms in the body, including heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, and in the gut, alongside deep knowledge of advanced sound technology. This scientifically engineered acoustic signal and music support deep relaxation and optimal recovery for clients.

Rest and Restore Protocol™ is Sonocea® Enhanced

Sonocea® is an innovative, patent-pending sonic augmentation technology that uses acoustic parameters that go beyond traditional sound design, integrating the scientific knowledge of endogenous biological rhythms with the nervous system’s potential to be entrained through rhythmic stimulation. 

Why does this matter?

By fostering coherence and harmony within these neural pathways, RRP helps individuals feel more at ease, and improve mental and physical well-being. It complements existing therapeutic treatments and interventions for chronic stress and trauma-related challenges, offering healing professionals a powerful tool to enhance and accelerate therapeutic outcomes and provide holistic support.

RRP’s innovative approach to modulating neural rhythms through musical themes offers a non-invasive, accessible solution for promoting relaxation, restoring balance, and supporting overall vitality. 

RRP has been reported to help clients:

• Become more accessible to therapy
• Enhance autonomic regulation
• Improve gut function
• Feel more relaxed, calm, and at ease
• Sleep better
• Feel less anxious and depressed
• Have greater access to their feelings

How does Rest and Restore Protocol™ work?

RRP is not a standalone therapy; it complements existing treatment strategies for individuals working with care providers.

While research and development are ongoing, RRP is informed by decades of research studying physiological rhythms in the body. RRP embeds biological rhythms into unique musical themes, signaling the healing functions of the autonomic nervous system.

Rest and Restore Protocol™ is delivered exclusively by certified providers through digital delivery via the Unyte platform. Clients experience a dynamic, progressive program, including five hours of Sonocea® Enhanced musical themes.
