Results of the Tomatis® Program within a Fifth Grade Setting
The students have shown improvement in auditory processing abilities. The students are better able to understand speech in the presence of background noise. This in turn assists them in tuning in and attending to language and learning. This is likely a result of intense exercise of the middle ear muscles through the application of Tomatis®. […]
A case study of cerebellar ataxia
This report describes the case of a young boy with a medical diagnosis of cerebellar ataxia who progressed from needing a wheelchair to walking with handheld assist after Tomatis® Training was added to a program of occupational and physical therapy. The boy had previously been discharged from an extensive therapy program for not making sufficient […]
Coherence between Tomatis® test and central auditory processing audiologic test battery in Children with Dyslexia
Dyslexia is a specific, language-based disorder, which characterizes by the difficulty id words decoding, which reflects insufficient abilities of phonologic processing. Developmental dyslexia, according to different authors, affects from 4% to 12% of school age population and is characterized by the difficulty in reading in a child with normal hearing and intelligence. Reading is a […]
School Pilot Research Project with the Tomatis® Method in Chicora Elementary
The aim of this pilot research is to see if Tomatis® Method in 60 hours 1/ Improves reading, writing, math, attention, focus, comprehension 2/ Can help a full classroom in auditory processing, improving classroom attention and production. The amount of noted improvement across all students suggests that the program benefits not only students who may […]
The analysis of the auditory attention and hearing lateralization of pupils who received Tomatis® therapy
The objective of the present paper is to present study results of the students who received Tomatis® therapy, which was implemented within the project titled “Attention! A solution for success”. Assessment of therapy effectiveness was conducted on the basis of analysis of auditory attention and lateralization tests performed before and after the therapy. Obtained results […]
The Effects of the TOMATIS® Listening Training on the Spatial Sense
The results show significant improving effects of the Tomatis® Program on spatial perception sense. It is interesting to note that differences in the timely development have been discovered depending on the applied test material. The analysis of the 3DW test shows a long-term effect comparable with the “Extended Tomatis® Effect” that had been shown by […]
The Tomatis® Method applied in the diagnosis and speech therapy
In audiology over the last few years much attention is given to the diagnoses of the Central Auditory Processing Disorders. These dysfunctions are also identified in people with language disorders. There exists therefore a need for effective methods to improve auditory perception. The Tomatis® Method is one of such proposals. For this reason, in Poland […]
Comparison of Effects of Auditory and Music Training of Blind or Visually Impaired Young People on Performance in Selected Auditory Tasks
Performance of blind/visually impaired children and teenagers before and after the auditory training and the music training in some auditory tasks (pitch discrimination, pitch–timbre categorization, pitch memory, lateralization of a stationary sound of a drum, lateralization of one or two moving motor vehicles) is compared. In the auditory training, the subjects were actively involved, i.e. […]
The effects on intervening of dyslexia high-risk group middle and high school students in Childcare Facilities: apply the intervention program improves auditory processing
The study researches regarding changing in reading and auditory perception ability after intervening dyslexia high-risk group of middle and high school students for improvement on auditory processing of neurological factors, and then aims to make a systematic intervention program for dyslexia students in verifying efficacy. The target of study is dyslexia high-risk group of 168 […]
