Testimonial

When [our daughter] started The Tomatis Method program as a sixth grader, she was reading at the third grade level and her auditory processing skills were in the 1st percentile. After The Tomatis Method she was reading at the 7th grade level and her auditory processing skills were in the 60th percentile. We are so grateful for The Tomatis Method - a miracle for our child.

The Big Picture

We are dedicated to improving the lives of our clients through implementation of The Tomatis Method of Therapeutic Listening. Using state of the art techniques we are effecting positive change in people's lives by teaching them to listen.

The Tomatis Method, developed by Dr. Alfred Tomatis, is an intensive clinic based auditory re-education program designed to improve one’s ability to listen and understand spoken language by improving auditory processing skills. Auditory Language Processing Disorder(ALP) can result in learning disabilities, reading and spelling problems, dyslexia, spoken communication problems as well as behavioral problems.

Through exact implementation of The Tomatis Method, children and adults’ auditory processing skills are enhanced, resulting in improved learning, listening and communicating that can result in a better quality of life.
