Use of Interactive Metronome?
Dr. Paul Stemmer presented his IM study findings at the American Education Research Association’s annual conference in March 1997. "What is remarkable and promising about this initial research was that the improvements were shown in a very short treatment period of three weeks. This PC-based training technology shows a great deal of promise for helping special education students."
What is it all about?
Sensory integration is often difficult to define for parents and teachers who may think that symptoms are related to developmental delays or behavior.
Parents are often overwhelmed and other professionals confused by the many aspects attributed to a sensory disorder.
Involvement in educational opportunities can increase understanding of Sensory Processing Dysfunction and promote long term development in a child with poor sensory processing.
With improved insight, parents and family, educators and other professionals learn to understand and respond differently to the problems their children experience.

Exersize that feels good!
Water is a unique medium in which to exercise. The physical response to exercise in water is different from that on land. This makes Aquatic Therapy an effective adjunct to traditional land based exercise programs. The buoyancy of the water reduces the body weight making it easier to exercise, thereby, decreasing joint stress. The viscosity and warmer temperature of the water (88 degrees) allows you to vary your resistance level of the exercise depending on the speed, intensity and duration of your program, Just getting into the water helps improve cardiac output and oxygen intake, which progressively improves cardiovascular activity, and helps improve your overall metabolism circulation, energy, general health and will being!
Understanding the Tomatis Method
When we work with autistic people that are hypersensitive to sounds, our first goal is to desensitize the bone conduction response, and allow the ears to become the main entrance to sounds. In this respect, sound will be processed in the correct way.
