Product Information

As for their noise reduction abilities, these earplugs passed our testing with flying colors. Not only did they muffle sounds, but they also allow enough sound to filter in so that you can still hear critical sounds. Choosing the best noise-cancelling headphones if you have an auditory sensitivity is the same as finding the right earplugs – everyone is different. A knife scraping against a glass bottle is the most unpleasant sound for most human beings. Researchers from the Newcastle University and Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging at UCL, both in England, reported in the Journal of Neuroscience that when we hear unpleasant sounds, the auditory cortex and the amygdala interact more intensely and process the negative emotions. The amygdala is a small almond shaped part of the brain that processes our emotions and aggression. It also controls fear responses and forms emotional memories. Some online reviewers and people I spoke to for this article said that the Flare Calmer have been genuinely life-changing for them – especially Autistic people.

The World Health Organisation published evidence in 2018 that unpleasant city noise contributes to raised stress levels. These noises affect a multitude of health issues and even increased risk of premature death. During testing, I found these earplugs to be great for reducing stress throughout the day. I was, as the name suggests, calmer while wearing them. However, they didn't provide enough noise reduction when I wanted to really focus. I also found them to be a bit uncomfortable after a few hours of wear. Much like poor diet, pollutants, distorted vision, which all affect our well-being, the sound we hear has the same effect. Hearprotek earplugs are equipped with memory foam ear tips that enhance the noise reduction capabilities. It is capable of 33db of soundproofing, which is great for anyone who needs a quiet environment.

Here, we are going to talk about the best earplugs you can use to control your anxiety: Loop Earplugs When selecting earplugs for sleeping, you should look for ones that are comfortable to wear as well as easy to insert and remove. They should fit comfortably in the ear canal without causing any pain or discomfort, says Shelby Harris, PsyD, DBSM, a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in behavioral sleep medicine.Not too flexible mind you, they do have a baseline of rigidity that allows them to retain their core shape. I am presuming that is an important feature because, in the end, they are about ‘shaping’ your ear canal to bring about those distortion-reducing benefits.

Throughout the testing, we evaluated the comfort and effectiveness of the earplugs. We also considered the value of the earplugs and who might find the earplugs useful for their particular needs.Flare Audio Limited has developed a remarkable, wearable device which reduces distortion in the human ear. Aptly named Calmer ®, testing has proven two huge benefits. Its design provides a natural way to reduce today’s constant barrage of environmental noise stressors, which are having a negative impact on our mental and physical well-being. The reduction of distortion also results in an improved, higher definition audio experience when listening to live or recorded music; giving ears a natural ‘audio upgrade’. Overall, look for earplugs made from soft, flexible materials that conform to the shape of your ear. Also, make sure the earplugs do not go too far into your ear canal, suggests Dr. Shah, since plugs that go deep into the canal can lead to wax impaction.
