Sensory Processing Disorder

Our brains are energised and relaxed when they are stimulated with sensory information. The ear is essential to all physiological processes because it is the best pathway for transmitting sensory information from the human body. However, a traumatic encounter or a violent environment can cause the brain to create defence mechanisms. If sensory inputs are not properly accommodated, how can sensory processing happen?

The vestibule, the portion of the inner ear that controls sensory integration, movement and coordination, perception of space (spatialisation) and direction, sequencing, planning, and organisation abilities important in learning processes, is actively worked on by the Tomatis® Method.

The vestibular cranial nerve (brain stem), via which specific frequencies of filtered or gated music enter the ear via bone and air conduction, is the brain stem through which the ear-brain training stimulates the brain and body.

The Tomatis® Method's creator, Dr. Alfred Tomatis, thought that this stimulation awakens the neuronal pathways involved in the nervous system's development, keeping the brain ready to process any information that comes its way.
