Sensory Tools: Headphones

Discover why every church needs to have inexpensive noise-reducing headphones readily available. Auditory hypersensitivity and auditory defensiveness can prevent people from attending church because of the anxiety and pain sound can cause. Noise-reducing headphones reduce auditory distractions and lower overall noise volume, while still allowing the person to hear their surroundings. By providing inexpensive noise-reducing headphones, churches can create a more inclusive environment where people with hypersensitivity to sound can participate without experiencing pain or discomfort.
