]Re: LISTENING THERAPY OR AUDITORY INTERGRATION TRAINING

Oh my my! $6,000 is an aweful lot of money. I could buy a truck load of

therapies for that cost.

Is that how much AIT costs these days? Price check every one!

Antonitsa, I don't want to disuade you as your boy is still non-verbal and he

may need the power of a centre and the bone conduction equipment that is

available at the centres..... but have you looked into the home versions of AIT

yet?

Many of us use The Listening Program by Advanced Brain Technologies. They have

a new program out these days that has home conduction earphones for about

$1,500. You own all of the equipment so you can use it forever. Another

program they have without bone conduction costs about $550. NOW.... these would

not be as powerful as the centres such as Berrard or Tomatis. I hear some moms

just swear by Berrard.

I used the 'old' version of The Listening Program for my son but he was verbal.

We used it for well over a year to bring his ears up to normal.

Which centre are you thinking of heading to? Shop around a little since even

for AIT, that number seems pretty high to me. I was under the impression that

clinical AIT could be obtained for just under $2,000. I would hate to see you

pay too much.

[ ] LISTENING THERAPY OR AUDITORY INTERGRATION

TRAINING

Hi to all,

Anyone tried these therapies and had good results?Some friends I have

in Sweden are going to try AIT and I was wondering if any of you had

experiences with any.

Thank you

Antonitsa

Hi!

I have been wondering about the same thing. I went to Dynamic Listening

website and that led me to Integrated Listening Systems

which talks in depth about this approach. I don't know whether to try this

either: It will cost me $6,000 & seems like it may or may not work ( Tomatis: a

little iffy?)

Let me know what you hear!

Thanks,

Tara
