The Listening Program® vs. The Tomatis Method: Which is Better?
Most programs claiming to be “sound therapy programs” have little or no scientific data to back up their claims. To date,
only The Listening Program and The Tomatis Method, both of which use the methods of Dr. Alfred Tomatis, have shown to
have a profound effect on conditions such as autism, add and other developmental disabilities.

The Tomatis Method has helped thousands of children with auditory processing problems, dyslexia, learning disabilities,
attention deficit disorders, autism, and those with sensory integration and motor-skills difficulties. It has helped
adults fight depression, learn foreign languages faster, develop better communication skills, and improve creativity
and on-the-job performance. Many musicians, singers, and actors have been able to fine-tune their skills by using
the Tomatis Method. Finally, many clients report psychological gains: improved self-confidence, higher levels of
energy and motivation, greater clarify of mind, and a sense of well-being.

In addition to being
more effective,
The Listening Program costs a fraction of what the The Tomatis Method costs.
The Tomatis Method must be used in a clinic setting because you never actually purchase the program, whereas you own
your own copy of The Listening Program
and it can be used anywhere, such as at home or work. Because you own your own copy of The Listening Program,
you can do the program over and over again and see even more results.
