Proactive Ear Protection: High-fidelity earplugs (e.g., Loop, Flare Calmer) for mild background dampening without speech attenuation; Over-ear industrial ear defenders (NRR 25dB+) for high-density environments.
Sound Dampening Tape: Apply commercial sound-dampening tape over speaker grills on loud toys and battery-operated electronics to reduce peak decibels by up to 15 dB.
Gradual Acoustic Pairing: Record the distressing sound on a phone. Play it at volume level 1 while the individual engages in a favorite sensory activity. Increase volume by 1 notch every 3 days only if zero distress is observed.
