Hi Lisa,
I have also had problems with processing sound, which makes listening and processing language very difficult.
The ears do far more than hear!
I have spent the last 4 years doing the Tomatis listening program to retune my ears. The results have been amazing. I'm due to have another listening test and do maybe another program.
My emotional health has improved, the program helped me deal with the trauma.
I've had alot of changes in my body. I had a stroke when I was about 2 or under which left me with R sided weakness.My balance has improved soo much I can now ride a bike. I can now step onto an escalator without having to hold on with both hands.
There has also been amazing changes in my singing. You can't sing in time or intune if your ears don't process sound effectively.
We all have a dominant ear, with R ear dominance the R ear hears the sound and directs it straight to the language centre in the brain.Sound gets processed quickly.With L ear dominance the sound takes another route, in the process the message gets confused.
I was very L ear dominant 4 years ago.Talking and listening was exhausting! Not anymore. |
