Sound Based Therapies

Therapeutic Listening®

"Therapeutic Listening® is a specific sound-based intervention that is embedded in a developmental and sensory integration perspective. The music in Therapeutic Listening® gives the listener unique and precisely controlled sensory information. The music is electronically modified to highlight the parts of the sound spectrum that naturally capture attention and activate body movement, synchronizing it with the environment. Therapeutic Listening® uses electronic modifications, along with the organized, rhythmical sound patterns inherent in music, to trigger the self-organizing capacities of the nervous system."
