The Electronic
Auditory Stimulation effect (EASe) audio CD series is the original
disc based auditory intervention program. The EASe CD is an easy to use, simple
and safe tool for occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech
therapists, listening therapists and parents, to teach a child challenged with
sensory processing issues, sound sensitivity, central auditory processing
disorder (CAPD), hearing or developmental issues, to better manage noise. The
EASe CD listening program is based on the Guy Berard method of auditory
integration training (similar to Tomatis) and can be carried out at home, at
school or in a therapist's office with an inexpensive CD player and a high
quality pair of headphones.
There are
a few
people in the US and in Canada that provide training in methods that
are related to the Tomatis Method. The options differ
significantly. It would be prudent to compare them, both with
regards to the training, purchase of the equipment and other
contractual terms. You can compare the differences on the following
