Under the direction of Institute Director and REI creator, Jeff Strong, the Strong Institute offers Rhythmic Entrainment Intervention for people with a variety of conditions including, AD/HD (ADD, ADHD), autism, bipolar disorder, depression, chronic pain, insomnia, PTSD, sensory processing disorders, sleep disorders, stroke, traumatic brain injury, and others. REI falls into three categories:
Custom-made Program
The REI Custom Program is the Strong Institute’s gold standard. Custom-made for each client, the REI Custom Program is revised along the course of the therapy to make certain that the client’s goals are reached. The REI Custom Program is unique in that it can single-handedly address a client’s many issues -- from sleep issues to depression, anxiety to self-regulation.
We offer the REI Custom Program for Children, Teens, and Adults.
Semi-custom Programs (Personalized)
REI Semi-custom Programs offer progressive stimulation in a ten to twelve week format. Created for the needs of each individual client, the Semi-custom Programs have a singular objective such as improved sleep, improved focus, reduced anxiety, etc. Gains are long-term and the programs are very easy to implement. Available as an immediately created download program, the Semi-custom Programs are optimized to meet the objectives of people with specific issues.
Our current Semi-custom offerings include:
REI Sleep Program
REI Focus Program
REI Sensory Processing Program
Generalized CDs
REI generalized CDs are designed for use on an episodic basis (that is, the positive response occurs each time the CD is used and lasts for up to six hours afterwards). They are cost-effective tools that work well in any setting and for anyone.
Our current generalized recordings are:
Calming Rhythms
Focusing Rhythms
Sleep Rhythms
SI Series 8-CD set

“We would definitely recommend the REI Custom Program™ to other parents with children on the Autism Spectrum. We tried other therapies including the Gluten/Casein Free Diet and the Tomatis Listening Program with mixed results. We have definitely seen improvements with our son while on the REI Custom Program.” David S. - Ellicott City, MD Father of a 9 year-old with autism
"I'm focusing better and getting a lot more done at work [since starting REI]. I can stay with a project a lot longer without climbing out of my skin. I'm also falling asleep easier and waking up much earlier in the morning." Josh B. 22 year-old with ADD and sleep issues
"Since beginning the REI Program, My husband is less forgetful, more organized, and more cheerful. He's whistling for the first time in years, a sign that he's happy. He's taking the initiative to play his CDs everyday. I'm so grateful to have my old husband around again." Barbara Z. Wife of 67 year-old with AD/HD and mood issues
"I have been trained in many 'listening' and music programs - and, to date, I have had the BEST therapeutic effect with REI. It is, by far, easier to implement than any other program, and from my perspective it has the most benefit and positive therapeutic changes!" Theresa Garrison, OTR Occupational Therapist
“The work that the REI Institute has done over the last 10 years is remarkable! My patients have experienced some incredible gains using the program. I am excited to have the opportunity to offer this program to the clients in my clinic.” Jennifer Griffith, OTR Occupational Therapist Milestones Therapeutic Associates, Inc.
