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.

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.

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.

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.

According to The World Health Organisation (WHO), environmental noise is the second biggest killer after air pollution. They highlight that just a 10dB increase in daily traffic noise exposure leads to a significant increase in heart attack, obesity and stroke because it creates additional stress on our bodies due to the increased release of the stress hormone cortisol.

Following two decades of research in sound and hearing, we have discovered that noise is not the only problem - the shape of our ears also has a significant impact. Our ears are shell-like shapes that have evolved to increase stress response to sound by resonating sound at frequencies between 2kHz – 8kHz. This resonance triggers the release of cortisol. Whilst the effects of HRTF have been known and studied for some time, we are the first to realise that our ear shape plays a role in the release of cortisol and have developed unique technology to address the issue.
