You can hear well and listen badly. Do you need to repeat the messages ?, Do you have difficulty retaining what you heard? Is it difficult for you to concentrate on a very noisy environment? Do you tend to misunderstand the messages? There are many signs that can show that although you hear, you can not integrate and process the auditory stimulus well.

 

It is said that listening is altered when an individual fails to correctly analyze the sensory message that his ears perceive, nor does his brain pay attention to the sounds that ears transmit to him.

 

For more than 50 years, a French otolaryngologist, Dr. Alfred Tomatis, designed a program of auditory stimulation, with the use of a special equipment called "electronic ear" and use of filtered music, which allows the training of the middle ear musculature. and thus retrain the ability to listen.

 

During Tomatis ® listening sessions, the music is transmitted with sudden changes of contrasts arranged according to the timbre and the intensity. This results in surprising the brain and put it little by little at the disposal of Listen.

 

The number of sessions and protocol to follow will be determined by the Certified Consultant of Tomatis ® who has previously performed the evaluation of the case, and will design a customized program. However, it is generally 2 hours sessions per day for a global program of 60 to 90 hours, distributed in intensive phases of 10 to 15 days, with breaks between them.

 

The Tomatis® Method is aimed at children, adolescents and adults. It is a complementary technique that does not intend to replace the work of a therapist. However, it has proven to be a useful tool in some areas such as:

​

• Learning and language disorders
