What is listening therapy

Any other recommendations on CE classes that you have felt to be beneficial? There are pros and cons to both but, overall, I see more potential and benefit with iLs.

There is currently limited evidence behind both programs, however, there was a pilot study published on iLs in the fall of in AJOT with positive results. We used TL for two years and are returning after a break. The results have been amazing. Now, she speaks on level, can follow a sequence of oral directions and rarely needs pictures or noise-blocking headphones. It also helped with sleep, self-regulation and general functioning.

It has been a miracle for her. A warning though- all problems worsened for the first two weeks and for a few days every time she moved to another level with the program. Still, the progress has been worth every single difficult moment! Can you recommend what CD player is suitable for therapeutic listening? I keep seeing different information on every product regarding anti-skip, bass, etc. Some reviews say anti-skip lowers the sound quality, but otherwise it would be skipping all over with an active kid.

What to do? Therapeutic Listening is a comprehensive, multi-faceted sound-based approach that involves much more than just the ears. Like other sensory systems, the auditory system does not work in isolation. Neurologically it is connected to all levels of brain function and as a result it has a vast range of influence. How we listen impacts not only our overall physiology, but also our behavior.

Therapeutic Listening is a specific sound-based intervention that is embedded in a developmental and sensory integration perspective. The music in Therapeutic Listening gives the listener unique and precisely controlled sensory information.

The music is electronically modified to highlight the parts of the sound spectrum that naturally capture attention and activate body movement, synchronizing it with the environment.

Therapeutic Listening uses electronic modifications, along with the organized, rhythmical sound patterns inherent in music, to trigger the self-organizing capacities of the nervous system. Many therapists currently trained in Therapeutic Listening find it an important addition to their Sensory Integration treatment modalities that can increase the intensity and shorten the duration of treatment.

Therapeutic Listening is not a listening therapy approach that consists of one program that must be followed in a certain order.

Camille, Age 11 Autism. After 8 weeks of The Listening Program, I saw a child who was much more aware of where his body was. If I say his name, he always looks my way. His play is now more purposeful as well as very imaginative. More abstract skills are emerging. Austin, age 4 Autism.

In my experience The Listening Program always provides the best results and my students are more focused and happier at school and at home. Mary Kidson. I have been using TLP consistently with my clients since Each TLP Core Program has the power to lay the foundation and ready the body for sensory regulation, calming, and decreasing the stress response.

It helps to optimize motor planning, perception and enhances overall auditory processing abilities, all of which are critical for full participation and achievements in higher-level learning! Nancy Marin Occupational Therapist. My experience with inTime was extraordinary, enjoyable and engaging. I was not thinking, feeling or acting my way through this but experiencing the process and surrendering to it.

My mind and body loved this rhythmic experience. For me, it is intense for a period of time as the body releases its hold, internal chatter emerges and creative tension mounts. I had a sense of no longer being able to or…. To me, inTime is more than a rhythm-based music listening program.

I have practiced yoga for 12 year. Yoga teaches its students to find inner quiet or peace, even in a crowded noisy room the goal is to be able to shut out all the noise and distraction and meditate. Listening to inTime is very similar to this, all the stress and distraction and chaos in life is like the crowded, noisy….

Stevie Zanetti. The inTime program provided us with immediate results. My grandson Jayden is twelve and has a delayed coordination disorder. The first week of listening Jayden became noticeably more comfortable in his body, especially his hands.

The third week I as the grandparent began to realize just…. Jayden's Grandma. I participated in the inTime preliminary clinical trial….. I loved it. I did both phases and my 8 year old son did the first trial.

For me, the music was very uplifting and made me want to move. My first session was in the morning and helped me get ready for the day. I did my second session after work and it made me feel re-energized for the evening.

It is so different than the other programs…. I happily and eagerly looked forward to each listening session and always felt so calm, settled and pleased with the outcome of each session. Helped me address some posture challenges I have been experiencing. I can easily pinpoint use of inTime with a number of my clients.

Rhythm is such an essential component of our optimal functioning…. Judith Belk, Ph. I am so excited about inTime; after having the opportunity to experience this program first hand, I was energized and enthusiastic about waking up each morning so that I could do my listening again for that day. I did not want it to end.

I look forward to sharing inTime with my clients, especially my teenage population…. Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. I have been a provider of The Listening Program since and have integrated the program into the treatment of children with varying disorders and have seen great improvement with attention, communication, behavior, self-regulation and motor skills.

I am excited with the development of the inTime listening method, as a rhythm-based music experience will enhance my interventions with children with sensory processing, modulation and coordination disorders through capitalizing on the….

Advanced Brain Technologies new program is amazing. Within days of starting inTime I felt calm and no longer had periods of profound sadness. My general outlook has changed and I feel that I can face the future. I became more motivated and energetic and was able to do things that I had been dreading.

It was developed by Sheila Frick who is the founder of Vital Links www. Sheila has extensive training and experience in working with individuals with sensory processing disorders. The function of the ear is to feel and hear sounds and movement.

It is referred to as the vestibular-cochlear system. The cochlea is the part of the ear that is our hearing sense organ, responding to minute vibrations and differences in sound waves. The vestibular portion of the ear detects movement of the head in space.
