“She is much calmer after REI...”

“Our daughter has had very few temper tantrums. She is also developing the ability to stop herself and calm herself down, usually within about one minute of when the recording starts. She’s been getting along much better with her brothers and sisters. Her attention span has increased–she can sit quietly and read a book for longer periods of time. She’s paying attention more in school and staying on task.”

Lisa D. Mother of an 8-year-old with AD/HD

The REI Custom Program Draws From Over Three Decades of Research

Rhythmic Entrainment Intervention™ (REI) is an auditory brain stimulation program that uses musical rhythm to stimulate and re-pattern neurological function. A unique blend of modern advances in brain research and ancient rhythmic techniques, REI facilitates long-term behavioral and cognitive improvement in individuals with neurological disorders.

REI was borne out of ethnomusicological research REI creator Jeff Strong began in the early 1980’s. For over a decade Mr. Strong immersed himself in time-tested rhythmic techniques, studying with traditional practitioners from around the world. He then extracted the core mechanisms of these techniques and began researching them in a controlled setting.

After 11 years of extensive clinical and scientific research, including several double-blind, placebo-controlled studies, Mr. Strong and the Strong Institute research staff identified hundreds of rhythmic combinations that correspond to specific behavioral and cognitive symptoms. This research resulted in two important findings:

Exposure to specific musical rhythm patterns elicits immediate calming and focusing effects.
Repeated exposure to these rhythms results in long-term behavioral and cognitive improvements.

The REI Custom Program was created in 2004. Careful collection and analysis of data have allowed the composition, protocols, and efficacy of the program to continually evolve. The current REI Custom Program is the most effective presentation of REI to date.

“We turned on the music and he responded instantly...”

“When we had the CD made, we put it in while he was in a session with his craniosacral therapist. He responded instantly! His system was calming down, and to the surprise of his therapist, he started vocalizing. …

We went from nothing to something with vocalizing… He is now starting to put sentences together, and I’m very pleased.”

Leslie J. – Mother with 19 year-old with autism

The REI Custom Program is The Only Completely Custom-made Auditory Program

We learned early on, while developing the REI Custom Program, that each person responds to different types and levels of stimulus. Our first formal institutional study in 1994 used custom-made recordings, employing the same protocol as our earliest research. That is, REI creator Jeff Strong performed live for each subject while the listener’s responses were tracked. A recording was made based on this data. This recording was then played once a day and adjusted as the listener progressed.

This process has varied only slightly in the last 3 decades. Though Jeff rarely performs live for a client, our focus on customization is stronger than ever: We ensure you receive the progressive stimulation that meets your needs.

As you complete the REI Custom Program Intake process, we identify the major issues you face and create a map of the appropriate stimulation to meet your goals.

We use sophisticated algorithms to assemble the appropriate rhythms for your first REI Audio Track; each subsequent track is created in 7-14-day intervals as you progress through the program.

This ensures the most efficient and effective program possible. Indeed, this is where we excel: Custom stimulation for optimal client improvement.
