The theory has paved the way for innovative treatments for various disorders by offering insights into the underlying mechanisms. Dr. Porges has also created the Safe and Sound Protocol™, a music-based intervention utilized by numerous therapists to enhance social engagement, reduce hearing sensitivities, improve language processing, and regulate states of arousal. The protocol has shown promise in improving social and communication skills.
