What is the Sound Therapy Listening Program
and how can it benefit you or your child?
Program Structure
It's an easy to use 5 level structured Sound Therapy Listening Program that can be listened to as an instant download or on a pre-loaded mp3 player.
Program Format
The program is a combination of advanced sound therapy and musical tracks. The music keeps the listener engaged, whilst the sound therapy does the work.
Program Use
You can listen for as little as 10mins a day while studying or doing other tasks, which makes listening really easy. The sound therapy works in the background with no negative effects.
Researched and proven to work in the mainstream and those with various challenges
A study conducted by the Cognitive Drug Research Group (CDR), a top UK and international cognitive testing and research company, found that users of the Sound Therapy Listening Program made significant improvements in many areas including learning, concentration, short term memory and focus. However, those with challenges including dyslexia, dyspraxia, ADD/ADHD, ASD, APD improved more significantly using the program for just 10-20 minutes a day.
These are the user groups that made more significant improvements using the program
ADD/ADHD
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a condition where characteristics such as inattentiveness, hyperactivity and impulsiveness prevent an individual from performing at their best. Often referred to as being on the spectrum, but on it's own it is not.
Dyspraxia
Dyspraxia is usually considered to be difficulty with co-ordinating physical movements (fine and gross motor skills). It is sometimes referred to as developmental co-ordination disorder (DCD). Dyspraxia itself is not a form of Autism.
Dyslexia
Dyslexics often display difficulties with phonology (the sounds of language), memory and information processing. They have difficulty understanding how to spell words and taking in meaning when reading, however it's does not mean they have Autistic Spectrum Disorder.
Short Term Memory
Impaired short-term memory is reflected by a reduced ability to store and reproduce verbal or spatial information. We have had good researched results using the Sound Therapy Listening Program to improve short term memory.
Auditory Processing
Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) is a disorder of the auditory (hearing) system that causes a disruption in the way that an individual's brain understands what they are hearing. It shows up as a difficulty with hearing-related tasks.
Asperger's syndrome (ASD)
Asperger’s syndrome, affects how a person communicates with and relates to other people in the world around them. While people with autism often share different areas of difficulty, they will often be affected in various ways.
Short Term Memory also improved by a massive 46% to 73% in our test group, which could also have implications for learning and those with short term memory challenges..
Researched with proven positive results in areas that include:
Concentration
When you enhance concentration it has been shown to have a positive effect on many areas of your life.

Happier
All these improvements you experience will put a smile on your face that says I'm feeling happier.
Great feedback from Students, Teachers and Parents
Listening to the music helps my brain get ready to learn. I have gone up 2 targets grades in English and I can read, spell and write much easier now.

Student
I have noticed a significant change in one particular pupil when he listens to the Sound Therapy – his whole persona changes and he becomes focused and willing to participate in lessons. An incredible transformation.

One pupil has ADHD – hyperactive not aggressive. He asked for the sound therapy to be put on his desk with ear next to it and produced better work than he’s done in a year!

Used in schools across the UK
Time is precious, so listening is only 10-20 mins/day
As the teachers mentioned in their auditory testimonials above, the Sound Therapy can work extremely quickly, so that you don't
need to spend hours of time listening.
It's so easy to use that no matter how busy your schedule, you’ll be able to listen to at least 10 minutes while commuting to school, work, walking, working out, relaxing or studying.
The Sound Therapy Listening Program music choice
There are 40 tracks to choose from, 8 different genres (Happy Island, Indian Classical, Mozart, Chinese Classical, Dance, Ambient, Kids and Nature on each level (1-5). So there is plenty of selection for kids and adults to personalise their listening experience. However, it's the sound therapy behind the music that does all the work.
Research is important and our results are outstanding
A
study conducted by the Cognitive Drug Research Group, a top UK and
international cognitive testing and research company, found that all
users made improvements.
Those with challenges including dyslexia,
dyspraxia, ADD/ADHD, ASD, APD improved
more significantly using our program for just 10 minutes a day.
Short Term Memory also improved by a massive 46% to 73% in our test group, which could also have implications for learning and those with short term memory challenges.

Even better, there’s no expensive equipment needed
Outside of the Sound Therapy Program itself, all you need is a PC, phone, tablet or mp3 player and a pair of headphones/ear buds. Our impressive results come from the actual sounds, beats and specific embedded tones that we have developed, not the quality of equipment they’re played on. The CDR research was carried out on cheap mp3 players and headphones and the research was outstanding.
Frequently asked questions about Sound Therapy in general and the Sound Therapy Program
Who Can Benefit From The Sound Therapy Listening Program
Even though we have some great results with dyspraxia, dyslexia, ADHD, auditory processing disorder and other learning challenges, we have also had some very good results and feedback from those who have purchased the program to help them focus and learn more effectively. So it can be used by anyone of any age who would like to give their brain a 5 level workout.
Do the effects last or fade over time.
The program is designed to educate or re-educate the brain to enable more effective processing by speeding up, slowing down or through cross hemisphere synchronisation that brings about whole brain learning. This is maintained throughout the use of the program and gives the brain a chance to re-adjust as it works through the levels. Once the program is completed you will find that cognitive and emotional behaviour will of changed in a positive way and it lasts.
However, what we also find is that the program can be used periodically, when it is felt that it is needed as a boost, such as before exams, sports events or when stressful situations arise, so it becomes like a tool in the toolbox to use as required.
How quickly can we expect to see results.
If you listened to the auditory feedback from the SEN teachers further up the page you will of heard them say that they have seen results in as quickly as 5 minutes of listening to the program. As each individual is different, then results will vary, but will be consistent with using the program on a daily basis initially. Our research also showed results with users spending 10min/day or 1 track whilst others prefer 20min or 2 tracks per day which they felt was more intense and helped speed up the process. What we do know is that you will see positive results and they may be in areas that you did not expect which is why we ask users to create a base line of their activities and abilities before and after using the program.
Can you do too much listening.
We don't actually put a limit on the listening as we have had users who have enjoyed the music and have listened many times a day. However, my advice would be to start off with one or two tracks/day and see how that feels initially then more if it feels like you are getting more benefit or using the program fo a specific purpose such as exams or other stressful situations or times when you need a burst of focused attention..
Can you use the program before bedtime.
We suggest that you have a cut off period of at least 2 hours before going to bed. The reason for this is that due to the program giving the brain a workout
Are there any side effects.
What we noticed at times is that users can sometimes but rarely feel a little light headed when starting out on the program. If this happens, because after all the brain is being worked, then we advise at least a glass of water before listening. Although nobody has given us feedback on any headaches it's another reason why some water is recommended just in case.
How long do I need to stay a level for.
Although some users have moved up a level before the recommended 2 weeks, others have stayed on a level for 4 weeks or more because they feel that it is really making a difference. Some users move up the levels and maybe get to level 4 and revert back to level 3 because they felt that was doing them more benefit and level 4 may of been a little too fast. Whatever your process of working through the levels from 1-5 or starting at 4 back to 2 for maybe some of the ADHD users we are always here to share knowledge and best practice.
Do you offer any pre-sales or post sales support.
In terms of support the founder of the program Jeff Moran is always there to answer your questions and advise on various products and issues that have to do with the program and often outside the program, in areas of general learning and behaviour. He can be contacted through his personal email or if a telephone call is the better option then we can arrange that. We also have the live chat with the team that you can find on each page where we can help with any questions. However Jeff is the expert in the field.
Do we need to buy any expensive sound equipment like headphones or speakers.
This question comes up a lot and our answer is that we carried out the research with CDR using really cheap mp3 players and earbuds, so the answer is in our experience and to get results then no. However if you choose to get a decent pair of comfortable headphones then by all means do so as it may improve the listening experience, just like sitting on a comfy chair.
What if the user struggles to wear a headphone or earbuds.
What we have suggested and used on several occasions is that 2 speakers are placed in the room on opposite side so when the user is in the middl-ish then they still get the cross-hemisphere effect, or even better play a track in the car. So yes there are way to get the user to listen without headphones because a good part of the program is to enjoy it.
Will it work with other programs.
Yes, we find it works well as a complement to Forbrain as it provides a strong and complete multi-sensory training, but we would suggest you try the Sound Therapy listening Program before moving to Forbrain.
Why have you priced the program a lot less than other solutions.
The main aim was to create a program that was affordable and could be used with a wide range of users. Because it is a generic program it does not require tailor made solutions, which often ramp up the cost and are not always necessary.
So if you shop around you will find that we are one of the most, if not the most cost effective solution in the market and we always say that before you spend possibly hundreds if not thousands on a solution, give ours a go as you may be pleasantly surprised.
Can I use the program once I have gone through the levels.
Yes, you can use the program again and again and also share it with other members of your household for them to gets the benefits. Users listen to it when they feel they need a recharge or as mentioned before in certain situations such as before exams, interviews, sports activities etc. It's your to use for life.
