Therapeutic Listening & Sonas/Samonas
|
|
These sound therapies are based on historical listening techniques (Tomatis, Berard/AIT). The use of modulated and/or spectrally activated music is intended to improve modulation/regulation, activity level/arousal state, attention, sensory processing, emotions/behaviors, social-emotional connectedness, play, speech language and communication, spatial and body awareness, and self-help skills. A trained therapist will determine which CDs may be most beneficial and develop and individualized listening program. This can be implemented in home, school, or clinic environments. Close monitoring by an experience therapist is important to evaluate child’s current functioning, consider family goals, make modifications to program and provide supports as needed.
