How can sound be both the problem and the answer?

The auditory system is one of the eight sensory systems, and it does not settle down on request. A hand dryer, a school bell or a busy shopping centre can be genuinely painful for a noise-sensitive autistic person.

Sound sensitivity and a love of sound often sit in the same person. Music is a very common special interest, and steady access to something you love can support mental health when the rest of the day is loud and unpredictable.

This collection runs from noise-reduction earplugs and ear defenders through to instruments, sound toys and music players. Some of our customers keep earplugs in a keyring case for assemblies and supermarket trips. Others buy a simple music player so a teenager can choose their own soundtrack on the bus.

We send every order free with tracking anywhere in Australia, with no minimum order value, and every purchase carries our 7-day satisfaction guarantee.
