Guest guest Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 My son is nine and has become really sensitive to sound over the past year. We do all the biomed supps have increased his magnesium but he spends alot of time with his hands covering his ears. We were with his cousins today and they were all having a great time playing Wii. Luke was not playing but doing a puzzle in the same room. They kids were having a great time (maybe a little loud) and everyone seemed to be having fun. He went to the front door and wanted to leave. I have never tried Listening Therapy or AIT and was curious if someone knew if one over the other is better for sound sensitivity. Thanks for your help, beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 According to Dorinne the different programs do different things. I had already done tomatis with a couple of boosts when she recommended AIT then 2 more boosts of tomatis. I think like everything else we do, each protocol probably works for about 1/3 of the kids. > > > My son is nine and has become really sensitive to sound over the past year.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Hi Beth- Just wanted to let you know about a recent experience with this. I treat my son with autism biomedically but have learned a lot about my own health over the last 3 years. Anyway, I now know that I have candida/yeast issues and gut problems, etc. Recently I was getting this really bad sensitivity in my ears. My son is pretty loud all the time and sometimes screeches, and any loud noise would make me cover me ears. It felt like a strong reverberation and was uncomfortable/painful. It was like this for 2 weeks before I decided to try something. I put Ear Drops into my ears- like Wallys Ear Oil( garlic, olive oil, mullen) a couple of times for 2 days. I couldnt believe it, but the ringing/vibration/pain went away. Im convinced that this was yeast in the ears.. maybe bacterial. Either way, garlic is good for both. I know some people who treat ear infections with these drops, and I am definitely a believer now! I think it could be yeast/bacteria... and I got these ear drops at Whole Foods but they have them at natural food stores too. Good Luck! denise > > My son is nine and has become really sensitive to sound over the past year.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Jen... cool. I will try it on Gabi too. :-) ! Thank you so much for this post. We've been dealing with sound sensitivity with our girl for a while. It causes so much anxiety for her that she sometimes wakes up with nightmares about how loud the lunchroom is at school. I mean, she's usually calling out every single car that passes by - even when we're in the back of the house... I put some garlic drops in her ears last night and this morning and so far she hasn't complained about one sound today... so, the drops are blocking or killing something. Either way, right?? LOL!! I don't know why we haven't thought of it until now - but sometimes its the simple answers staring you in the face that change the world right?
