Established in 2001, Brain Works offers brain training and auditory training to people around the world. These programs promote the development of the brain, auditory, visual, motor and vestibular systems.

The Tomatis-based auditory training, visual-motor-balance program and brain training can be done at Brain Works or training products can be purchased for home use (See Products).

We help toddlers to senior citizens, who are learning challenged to gifted. By completion, people observe improvements in the ability to think, remember, listen, speak, read, write, move, socialize and focus. Most programs span three months to establish neural growth in the brain.

 


Brain Training

brain trainingThe brain CAN be stimulated to create new pathways, which strengthens connections among areas of the brain. A good example is the visual-motor connection.

Within recent years, researchers have found the following to be true:

  1. The brain continues to grow new cells until we take our last breath
  2. Mental skills are improved by challenging the brain regardless of age

At Brain Works, clients work on cognitive training computer programs, visual-motor-balance exercises and auditory training to help their brains develop abilities that are at the foundation of learning.

These skills include visual perception, memory, attention span, auditory perception, reasoning, sensory integration, and processing speed.

Success in reading, writing, math, receptive and expressive language, social skills, problem solving, driving and work-related skills all depend upon the proper working of these fundamental abilities.

Auditory Training


Auditory training is important for listening-related abilties such as tuning out background noise, word-finding while speaking and understanding what is said in conversation (auditory processing). Auditory training sends stimulating sound energy to the brain and, thereby, encourages the growth of brain pathways.

Sound stimulation pioneer, Dr. Alfred Tomatis, was the creator of the first listening program that used the power of modified classical music to promote better functioning of the ears, body and brain. There are now several Tomatis-based auditory training programs. See Products page.

While the programs may differ in which of Tomatis' principles are used, what they have in common is that different groups of frequencies are heard at particular times during the training. The end result is usually as follows:

  1. The middle ear muscles become strengthened, which can help decrease sound sensitivity and increase listening focus.
  2. the vestibular system in the ears is stimulated, which can improve balance, coordination, body awareness and muscle tone.
  3. the brain grows new pathways, which can result in better memory, attention span, auditory processing, visual perception, reasoning, sensory integration, frustration tolerance, sleep, social awareness, eye contact, mood regulation and more tolerance for food textures, tastes, smells and touch.
