## Description

Calmer helps millions of people with sound sensitivity reduce their stress response to sound without any noticeable change to their hearing. Calmer is a unique ear tool that reduces our stress response to noise without blocking or muffling sound. Designed to be worn comfortably in the ear for long periods of time, Calmer maximises brain function and minimises distractions.

Review: Great Outer Design, Great Tech Design, Fair Price, Lives Up to Its Name - *Reason for buying* I had read about Calmers as a potential accommodation tool for people with autism and general sensory/perceptual sensitivities (which I have). *Outer Design Pros* They fit well, they are very discreet (in clear), their bag keeps them dry and clean. The bag is easy to recognize by touch if you have it in a laptop bag with other stuff. *Technical Design Pros* Some people have said that, after the 24h test, they took the Calmers out in noisy environments and immediately noticed the Calmers had been making a difference, because they became more anxious and irritable. I do not notice such a shift (which is a plus because it seems that wearing the Calmers a lot doesn't further lower your tolerance to sound). On whether it works for me- I can easily notice that mid to high pitched sounds are, indeed, muffled. Low pitch sound is unaffected, and I can still hear mids to highs pretty well. There is seemingly no decibel difference, just pitch. So, Flare is legit on those claims. Again, I haven't felt a distinct shift when I put them in or take them out. However, I have been far less anxious, irritable, and overwhelmed since I started to wear them (real result, placebo, or other cause- I don't know, but I'm sticking with it). Also, I can tolerate close proximity to very harsh noises like vacuuming (never could achieve this before). I feel as though I am able to function better in my noisy home, whereas before I was knowingly and frequently running away from noise. Noise can still be annoying sometimes, but it just seems more tolerable/manageable. *How/When I Wear Them* I place the Calmers in my ear as directed (logo/projection side facing the back of your head, not super far into your ear). They really don't work otherwise, so be sure to do that. I just put them in before any louder noises I expect to occur and/or that I suspect or know stress me out. So, for example, I will put them in when my family is settling down to watch TV. I haven't tried the Calmers at a noisy restaurant or public space yet. I so far didn't feel I needed them at those places, but I'm sure they will help there. I also reach for them if there is a louder noise in my environment and I notice that I am irritated or have a headache in the back of my head/neck (I learned recently that these headaches are often from overstimulation). The noise may not be the cause, but who knows? I grab my Calmers anyway. *Technical Design "Cons"* Nothing is a real con for me. I do notice some weirdness to my voice when I wear the Calmers. People call it "echoing" but it just sounds a bit muffled and low to me. Nothing bothersome over time, though. It can also be a bit harder to hear people. This was all expected, especially due to the range at which I and other people speak (mids I guess). You also can't wear earbuds for music with them, so headphones are good, or I just take them out. I originally wanted colored Calmers for fun (I don't actually like boring and discreet items), but I found the available colors to be ugly, and I see that the clear ones are actually a great choice. So, Flare could make nicer colors, but it's not that important. I am guessing that I can't wear my tragus piercing without affecting the Calmers' performance (haven't tried, they are bendy but it might still affect things). That's fine, as I'd rather wear the Calmers most of the time. It's not a problem existing for most potential buyers anyway, but I wanted to note that. *Overall* I love the Calmers, and I think the price is fair for the materials used and how they have helped and will help me. I would definitely suggest splurging on accommodating yourself (I know Calmers are not that expensive, but I was still dragging my feet to buy them). Accommodating yourself in health is not shameful (you aren't being overly dramatic), it definitely helps you to live a little and be more productive, it is needed, it is worth the price, and it opens up space to be happier. 10/10 great tool for sensory sensitivity.
Review: Helpful. Needs to be fitted better. - I wanted to allow myself time to get used to these before reviewing it. I have sudden hearing loss on one side, which has been mostly a nightmare. People think it's not a big deal, but we were born with two ears because we need both of them to function properly. Since losing half my hearing, I have no more balance, no center. Unless you're half deaf, you just don't realize how much you lose when you only hear on one side. I can't tell which direction the noise comes from or how far away. Everything is just noise, at the same level, all the time. If someone is talking on my left, I can't hear it over whatever is happening on my right. When someone calls my name from a distance, I have no idea of knowing where they are unless I see them. This is dangerous in some situations because sometimes the sounds I don't hear are cars, and thankfully I have a dog who warns me before something like that can happen. At some point, it's just stimulation overload and I get migraines, dizziness, vertigo, etc, and I just stay home. What I'm trying to say is I have been looking for something to make sounds more bearable, and I think I finally found it in Flare Audio's Calmer. So with all that in mind, here's what I think of it: - It does what it claims. When in place, sounds no longer sound like one big sheet of noise. It's like the difference between using your TV's stereo and upgrading to a home theater. Sounds sound more layered, like I'm finally hearing them as I should before only being able to hear on one side. I still hear on one side, but the sounds seem more organized. - I don't know how much it helps with tinnitus, but I have tinnitus, and if there is an improvement, it's subtle. But I'll give that more time. After all, some ongoing problems won't go away instantly, so expectations have to be realistic. - Sounds seem crisper. I feel like I'm hearing things I missed previously. - I have a bone-anchored hearing aid on my deaf side, though it doesn't work very well. A bone-anchored hearing aid (BAHA) is one of the ways the deaf can hear again, using bone conduction to allow sound to travel from the deaf side to the hearing side. The idea is to allow your brain to feel like you're hearing on both ears, but really all the sound is just traveling to the hearing side, and when in harmony, it works just well enough to make life bearable. In reality, it's far from ideal, and the device was almost useless to me. But with Calmer in my hearing ear, it helps the sound from my hearing aid become more focused because it eliminated a lot of white noise and just lets me hear more efficiently. It's truly wonderful, and I almost cried because it's been a few years since being able to hear with that much quality. It's not perfect, but it's the best I can hope for with one functioning ear. That's my honest testament to this device. - Lastly, the bummer of this device: it doesn't stay in place. I bought the standard size, not the mini. If you're not sure which size to get, get the standard. Unless you know you have smaller ear canals (you will have known that by now because any doctor would have mentioned it), it's best to get the standard. But it is easily dislodged. I don't have a very active lifestyle anymore, so I don't do things that would cause it to be dislodged, but it always happens. A regular activity like having a conversation or walking can dislodge this thing because it needs to be redesigned to fit better. It won't fall completely out. Between your tragus and antitragus, you'll feel something different and touch your ear and realize the device is resting there, instead of in its place. I don't have super waxy ears and that's the only thing I can think of that could cause the device to keep dislodging. I just think it's a design flaw. So, when the device is in place, it's wonderful. The design needs to be reconfigured to not fall out so easily, but otherwise, what a great idea. It's a game-changer and I'm so glad I got it. As with anything you put in your ear, be careful, educate yourself, and even talk to your audiologist. But this is a great product. If it was on Shark Tank, I think the panel would go for it. The company's website has more products as well, and it's worth looking into. Good luck!

## Features

- STRESS RELIEF FROM EVERYDAY NOISE | Calmer is for anyone who wants to reduce stress caused by everyday noise. Noise-sensitive people often notice the effect immediately, whereas others may need to wear Calmer for 5-10 minutes in a noisy setting and then remove them to appreciate the stress reduction that Calmer is delivering.
- NOT A TRADITIONAL EARPLUG - NO MUFFLING | Calmer is a hollow, soft silicone, ear tool that reduces ear resonance. It’s not a traditional earplug and it doesn’t block or muffle sound which means you don’t experience the occlusion effect that is common with all other earplugs. Calmer fits discreetly inside the ear and can be worn for long periods of time to improve wellbeing.
- WHEN TO WEAR CALMER FOR BEST RESULTS | Calmer allows you to communicate perfectly and is designed to become part of your everyday routine. Wear Calmer just before you enter a noisy space and keep it in your ears until you leave so that you minimise your stress response. Typical places to wear Calmer include... Busy Places, Public Transport, Noisy offices, Schools, Hospitals, Restaurants, Bars, Cafes, Shops and more.
- TECHNOLOGY THAT REDUCES EAR RESONANCE | Calmer alters the internal shape of our ears to reduce ear resonance at frequencies between 2-8 kHz. They feature a flat surface inside a hollow soft silicone design to improve how sound reflects inside our ears. This helps reduce stress from sound with no volume reduction or muffling - just a calmer way of hearing.
- WHY CALMER MATTERS | The World Health Organisation says environmental noise is the second biggest health risk after air pollution. A 10 dB rise in daily traffic noise is linked to higher rates of heart attack, obesity and stroke due to increased cortisol release, the body’s main stress hormone. Sustained cortisol keeps the body in a heightened stress state. After two decades of research in sound and hearing, we found noise is not the only cause. The human ear naturally resonates sound between 2 kHz and 8 kHz. This resonance amplifies stress-inducing frequencies and contributes to cortisol release. Calmer is designed to reduce this effect at the ear itself.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It does what it claims, comfortably
*by A***E on December 20, 2023*

I've tested these in multiple scenarios, from teams meetings at my desk, to live bands and crowds. These are invaluable to me, I've ordered a second set to keep one in a container on my key ring. My use case: I recently learned I am autistic and have been exploring recommended tools to increase my enjoyment of life, or at least decrease my discomfort in it. These earplugs are one of the recommended tools. Here is what I noticed: The first 6 hours they were itchy. Not because they cause an itch, but because my ears are unaccustomed to earbuds or ear plugs. I typically prefer over the ear headphones, so this adjustment was necessary and reasonable. Pulling them in and out throughout the day while at home alone, I noted that it suppressed the sound of light rainfall entirely and made my conference calls much easier to deal with. I didn't have to constantly adjust the sound up to hear certain people, then down to muffle the ear grating noise of others, despite using a high quality conferencing speaker. Over the course of several days, these ear plugs have actually decreased my pre-meeting stress dramatically. I wore them to the book store, which is typically pretty quiet. This was day 3 and I had no discomfort or fear of them falling out. I did enjoy it more, I didn't notice much talking except for those in my immediate vicinity. I didn't notice the horrifying music they typically play, and I didn't notice it so thoroughly I'm only now realizing it. Then, I wore them to a bar/restaurant that has indoor live entertainment. Here the effects were massive. These entirely eliminated the steady drone of conversation from all the other tables that carries so well in large, highly acoustic buildings. Additionally, I wasn't being distracted by those around me that weren't speaking to me. Typically, I can, without intent, easily hear such conversations. There was no decrease in the quality of the sound of the band that I could tell, though it did eliminate the "brackishness" that is usually uncomfortable. I feel like I had to ask people that were speaking to repeat myself far less than normal, and far less than others were asking people to repeat themselves (based on watching the bartenders and customers interact). I was asked to repeat myself more than normal, but I think that is because my brain had adjusted to the lower levels of sound interference. Once I realized and adjusted for that, no worries. No one, to my knowledge, noticed the transparent ones I was wearing. I do have long hair that typically covers my ears, but I also have the habit of tucking my hair behind my ears. Eating... It is my personal preference to take them out when eating at home in a relatively calm environment. In such cases the sound of my eating is too much. However, when I'm in loud environments I prefer to keep them in because the benefits of the overall noise suppression far outweigh the sound of my own chewing, which is by comparison to that around me far more minimal. As I mentioned, I've already purchased a second pair. I find these far more useful than the other main brand with a circular design, at least for daily use. I'll save the other for planes and occasions that I want to block out pretty much everything. This brand is the winner for times I need just enough suppression to make it through the day AND interact with those around me. I sometimes have to check with my hand to make sure they are there because they're comfortable enough to escape my constant awareness. I'm truly pleased these exist.
