With technology and tools to support the NeuroDiverse

Our Support Toolkit

The technologies and tools that we use are of the following kinds:

  1. To reveal what is going on internally. They can provide biofeedback from the body state and to help find that sweet spot of balance in the autonomic nervous system.
  2. Support the NeuroDiverse experiencing learning difficulties.
  3. Assisting with communication – from within or within an environment.

Sometimes Meltdowns, can be the result of frustration from not being able to communicate what is being felt or experienced in a way which is understood by those around them.

Tomatis Forbrain

A powerful tool to boost your brain

Forbrain® maximizes abilities in speech, attention, and memory with a sensory workout. Harness your voice and experience real improvements at school, therapy, or work.

Forbrain is a pioneering brain training device that helps people of all ages and abilities improve their speech, attention, and memory. Thanks to years of auditory stimulation research, our patented technology enhances the natural process of the auditory feedback loop. Simply put, this is how speech is continuously modified based on what you hear.

Forbrain modulates the voice to make it sound clearer and stimulates the brain, thus retraining your abilities. Using the device is easy and intuitive: simply wear the headphones, switch them on, and speak for a few minutes every day to boost your brain. You’ll soon grow your abilities in communication, concentration, and learning.

Multiple studies globally have shown that the repetitive use of the Forbrain headset improves:

  • Speech, pronunciation and fluency
  • Reading and writing skills
  • Ability to focus on a task

Forbrain®  can be used by the following cohorts:

  • Special Education Needs
  • Specialists and Therapist (Speech particularly)

Tomatis Soundsory

A program of music and movement to improve motor and sensory skills.

Soundsory®  headset uses a preset program which helps improve motor and cognitive abilities in children and adults.

Soundsory ®  is created by the trustees of the Tomatis® Method and has received multiple international awards. 

It has three modes:

  • The Soundsory® program
  • Streaming your own favourite tunes
  • Noise cancelling headphones when the senses are challenged.

The Soundsory® program has a built in listening program that is ready to go. All you need to do is put them on, press play and listen.

The music chosen and the order has a specific purpose and includes music which is calming, joyful, energetic or relaxing.

  • Rhythmical music – SOUNDSORY® is specifically designed to emphasize the rhythm of the music
  • Dynamic Filter system – SOUNDSORY® transmits the music with sudden changes of tonal contrasts triggered by timbre and intensity.
  • Air and Bone Conduction – SOUNDSORY® uses two different types of sound processing, both air and bone conduction, to stimulate the brain
  • Body Movement Exercises – SOUNDSORY® engages the user in a series of 50 special exercises that cause the neural networks in the brain to grow and become more efficient.

The headphones use both the air conduction and bone conduction meaning that while listening and moving, the rhythmic music can influence our posture, balance, and coordination for better.

All ages benefit from the gentle sound stimulation with air and bone conduction and a “mini” version of the unique Tomatis Method Gating® dynamic filter system. Soundsory® helps to improve:

  • Attention, motivation, spatial judgement, hand-eye coordination and social skills
  • Clumsiness, posture, rhythm/timing, handwriting, eye contact, learning issues
  • Weak muscle tone, balance, forgetfulness due to ageing, delay in walking

Try four different movements per session such as marching and sideways jumps. The movement exercises target three key areas:

  • Voluntary body movement
  • Timing & rhythm control
  • Balance & spatial judgment.

Soundsory is a 40 day program divided into two blocks of 20 days each with a recommended 3 week break in between each 20 day session. Each day consists of 30 minutes of music listening with an optional exercise program.

If you do take a break during a 20 day period because sometimes life just happens and you miss a day or two, just pick up where you left off.

Every time you run the 40 days again, you may experience new benefits.

Soundsory® is also used in New Zealand and worldwide by  Speech and Language Therapists and Occupational Therapists in their work with children with developmental delays and with adults to speed up rehabilitation after trauma, including after stroke.
