What is “integrated” listening?
iLs programs effectively “re-train” parts of the brain involved in
learning, communicating and moving. Combining a Tomatis-
based auditory program with specific visual and vestibular
stimulation, iLs strengthens neurological pathways and
improves our ability to learn and to process information.
A well-modulated vestibular system is essential for controlling
the nervous system’s level of arousal. The vestibular, cochlear
and visual are our 3 main systems for organizing sensory input,
and they are very interrelated. Stimulating all 3 simultaneously
is a holistic approach which requires the brain to become better
at processing multi-sensory input.
Who can benefit?
iLs programs directly affect our visual, vestibular, and auditory systems, thereby influencing a
broad spectrum of our day-to-day functions. iLs is most often applied to improve the following
situations:
• learning difficulties
• auditory processing, reading, phonemic awareness
• concentration and attention
• sensory processing
Other areas where clinicians are successfully employing iLs include the recovery of executive
functions after head injuries, mood improvement, emotional well-being and for children on the
autistic spectrum.
