The Tomatis Program Vs.
Home Listening Programs

Lately many people have been asking the question "What is the difference between the Tomatis program and home listening programs?"
The answer is quite simple. The program that was created by Dr. Alfred Tomatis is unable to be duplicated in a home setting, because only in a clinic can you recieve:

*Bone conduction
*Audio-vocal feedback
*Establishing right-ear dominance
*Individualized programs that can be modified
*Clinical Monitoring

All of these components play a crucial role in the positive outcomes we see from the Tomatis program.
