Music has been used as a healing modality for thousands of years. Recent research shows that it has a profound effect on the brain, nervous system and even body cells. Our ears are like batteries and receive energy from our environment, which can be used to recharge and heal the brain and nervous system.
We offer an effective, specific form of music therapy called Integrated Listening Systems (iLs) in which the patient listens through headphones to specifically filtered classical music. This is combined with movement therapies and art therapy to heal the brain and body.

First, we take a specific auditory history. Then, we conduct auditory testing of your hearing. We may also conduct specialized auditory processing testing. Based on these, we prescribe an in-office program of specific, filtered music and movement exercises that is tailored to you. Home based programs are also available.

ILs has been effectively used to help with traumatic brain injury, hearing loss, improve reading comprehension and auditory processing disorder and optimizing vocal and musical performance in addition to:

• ADHD/Attention Deficit Disorder/Learning Disabilities/Reading Comprehension
• Anxiety Symptoms/Depression Symptoms
• Fibromyalgia Symptoms/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Health Maintenance
• Memory Improvement
• Multiple Sclerosis
