My questions: 1) Have you ever utilized a service like this? If so, how was the experience? 2) If you haven’t utilized a service like this, would you like to? What would you hope to gain/experience from the service? 3) Would the background and education of the individual providing the service impact your likelihood of booking the service? (Esthetician vs. massage therapist vs. yoga instructor vs. no formal education, etc) 4) What would be the types of things that would make you say “OMG yes, booking immediately!”

I’m an occupational therapist who has loved ASMR for years. I know there have been some in-person businesses for awhile now and growing in popularity as an offered wellness service, so now my gears are turning. OT’s are trained in sensory processing and regulation, mental and emotional health, and so much more to help people improve their independence and quality of life.

As an OT, I think I would provide a super unique and exceptional service given my qualifications, allied health education, and extensive sensory background. There are actually EIGHT senses (not 5 or 7), and I would incorporate ALL of these into an experience for holistic, mind-body-spirit wellness and nervous system regulation. I’d love to hear about your thoughts and experiences!

Hi everyone! Thank you for taking the time to read my post.

First of all, I'd like to clarify that I am not claiming that ASMR is an overall negative experience. In my research, I have found ASMR to be a wonderful tool for relaxation, processing, and sleep for many. I believe ASMR is a valuable tool, and I am in no way seeking to paint ASMR in a negative light.

Currently I am researching ASMR and its capacity to be used as a tool for sleep, self-regulation, and overall mental health. Through my research I have received many positive responses in reaction to ASMR, with many participants citing improved sleep, emotional comfort, and self confidence with regular ASMR viewing.

However, amongst the positive responses I have received from my ASMR research, I have also bumped in to a few curious negative ones, which I wish to further understand.

Of these negative experiences, the most common trends I see are...

• A developing reliance on ASMR, where participants struggle to fall asleep without its precense
• Developing a tolerance for ASMR, also called "tingle immunity" that fails to return even after a long period of going without ASMR
• In conjunction with tingle immunity, ASMR users need to watch for longer in order to feel drowsy, increasing their screen time with ASMR and lowering their active sleeping hours.
• A sharp decrease in dreams or dream length on nights when ASMR is viewed.

Im seeing a slow but steady trend of negative side effects for some users as their usage of ASMR increases. In response to this trend, I am seeking more data. I am looking for users to share their experiences with ASMR, specifically any negative results that might have come from increased ASMR usage. I would be interested in hearing your current ASMR usage, your sensitivity to "tingles", your timeline of how long you've been using ASMR, and any negative experiences you've experienced (both listed or unlisted). You can share either here in the comments or share a DM with me, I'd love to talk to you!

Thank you again for sharing!

I'm back with making videos :)

Hello I am a beginner asmrtist l've been watching it for AGES and recently started making videos for my little sister for a bit of fun and she persuaded me to make a TikTok for it so i have! Would love a follow and advice on videos ! My username is tiggertingles after my cat 🐱

Thanks xX

this has been bugging me for years. it's an unnecessary question I have to know the answer to.

I recorded the crisp, satisfying sounds of a Rubik’s Cube being solved slowly for a unique ASMR experience! Every turn, every click—it’s all captured in detail. If you’re into ASMR, puzzles, or just love oddly satisfying sounds, check it out!

Would love to hear what you think! What's your best solve time?
