Practitioners Testimonials

We see consistently excellent results with iLs with regard to attention and learning problems.  iLs works at a neurological level so it’s a great complement to the behavioral, cognitive and medical approaches we use at Hallowell Centers… Even the best therapy only works if you actually stick with it, so the fact that iLs is not only effective but is fun and can be done at home makes it extremely appealing.

At STAR Center our therapists use iLs for a few key reasons: it can be customized to each individual’s needs, the bone conduction delivery is a wonderful vestibular supplement, and the quality of the music is remarkable.  We use iLs in most of our children’s programs, and we often send clients home with an iLs Focus system for continuation of therapy once their intensive short-term program is complete.

Client Testimonials

Before coming for Listening therapy, Louie was a very difficult child. He was very anxious and always a sad looking boy. This affected his school work and was the reason why he had no friends.

We have been coming here for ten weeks and Louie is a different child. He is now a very happy child and making lots of friends at school. He is in the highest maths group and understands a lot more. Last term’s school report was so much better than ever before.

Thank you Harry, this program has helped Louie so much. He has come a long way.

Dear Harry, Please accept my most grateful and sincere thanks for the work you accomplished with my son Paul over the course of the past year. His demonstrated progress in almost every measurable area has been nothing short of fantastic. Moreover, he is now excited about learning.

To conclusively learn that my son did not have a learning disability was naturally a relief; however more important, was learning/understanding how we could help him achieve his full potential. You have set us on that course and we are forever thankful for your professional assistance.

In closing, I would relish the opportunity to serve as a witness to the outstanding benefit your program(s) may afford children with similar needs.

Dear Harry, I … started to feel changes by about the 3rd week, which was very exciting! ... 

I have also noticed some changes in myself. I find that I am more comfortable being with other people, and more comfortable expressing myself verbally. This has led to increased confidence, and much greater enjoyment of social activities. When one has to concentrate to participate socially, it can become very tiring, and sometimes we can find it is easier to withdraw from the rest of our noisy world.

The experience has been so amazing so far, I can only imagine the benefit to be derived from … (more) listening!

I have seen huge changes in Nicholas since we started the program. He was a very angry and unhappy little boy for no reason I could see. Now he is full of life, always smiling, loves school and learning, always wanting to learn more.

He now knows when he gets angry and why and can control it. This program has changed all our lives and most importantly, Nicholas can lead a normal 6 year old’s life. Thank you Harry
