SleepPhones are a soft, machine-washable headband with tiny, ultra-slim adjustable speakers tucked inside that allow you to sleep (or exercise or travel) while listening to your favorite music, recordings or soothing nature sounds. Designed by a family doctor, SleepPhones are the world’s most comfortable, bed-friendly headphones and provide a safe and natural way to fall asleep without bulky headphones or painful earbuds.
We are now carrying SleepPhones in three models: the original corded version (SleepPhones® Classic) and the wireless blue-tooth edition (SleepPhones® Wireless) which can both be connected to your favorite music or listening sources. We also carry the “simple” model (SleepPhones® Simple) which features a cord-free WAV music player, pre-loaded with 17 soothing audio tracks with just the touch of a button. All SleepPhones are backed by a one-year guarantee.
SleepPhones have helped hundreds of thousands of individuals with insomnia, jet lag, tinnitus – and even those with a noisy bed mate – sleep better. And are also happily in use by runners and hikers as they exercise. Adaptations is selling the SleepPhones® Classic for $40 and both SleepPhones® Wireless and SleepPhones® Simple for $100.
Adaptations is located at the new LightHouse Building, 1155 Market St., 10th floor, San Francisco, 94103. Call us at 415-694-7301 or email us at adaptations@old.lighthouse-sf.org with any questions.

Our new store at our Market Street headquarters is open and ready for your business. To start things off we’re pleased to announce that in addition to the other Humanware products we sell we’re now able to offer for sale the Victor Reader Stream, a handheld accessible media player that is second to none.

Now available at Adaptations: the recently redesigned Rainbow II Color Reader. Small, accurate and easy to use, the Rainbow Color Reader will easily fit in a pocket. The Rainbow Color Reader provides accurate color discrimination for over 40 colors, without confusing the user with odd color names or vague descriptions of the color. Only one button and only a single AAA battery (included) means simple operation and maintenance.
The Stella desk lamp is making waves in the low vision community and is now available at Adaptations in both black and white. It’s a very dynamic lamp with a total of fifteen different lighting intensities. You can choose from three primary light levels – bright white light, soft white light and a softer orange. You can also toggle through five different brightness modes within each of these three light levels. The Stella retails for $180.00, but during February, if you enter the store yelling “Stella!” (à la Marlon Brando in Streetcar Named Desire), we will give you 5% off your purchase of this lamp. You’ll save some money and we’ll share a laugh together.
