• Protocol: TLP SPECTRUM w/
Waves multisensory audio system
• 2X daily (morning & afternoon) 15
min each
• Concurrent with other therapies;
hyperbaric oxygen, hippotherapy,
and bioenergy work
Nicoló
Results within first four weeks
• Suddenly seemed more aware of his environment
• More inquisitive and more observing
• Asking lots of Why’s? about things
• “Somehow I felt TLP had triggered something in his
brain”
Results after 2 months
• Improved sustained attention
• Less distractible
• Improved communication (initiating)
• Improved morophosyntactic production, more structured
sentences, use of adverbs, and past tense verbs
• Reduced dysfluency
• Global motor skill improvement and coordination
• Improved postural control, for longer periods
Nicoló
The better we process sensory
information, the better we can understand

• Sounds are created when objects vibrate
• Sound waves are fluctuations in air pressure
across time
What is Sound?
Resonance
Psychological study of
human perception of sound
Psychoacoustic Foundation
• Frequency
• Amplitude
• Time
• Space
• Sound determined by the frequency of vibration
• 1 Hertz (Hz) equals the vibration repeating itself once
• 20 Hz- 20,000 Hz human range
• Pitch- perceived frequency of sound
• Infrasonic- below 20 Hz
• Ultrasonic- above 20,000 Hz
• Music – instruments
• Language- phonemes
Frequency
• The magnitude of increase or decrease of a sound wave
• Amplitude is perceived as loudness
• Loudness is measured in decibels (dB)
• Decibel scale is logarithmic
• Louder the sound the higher the decibel, softer the lower
• Less than 75 dB is considered safe
• Exposure of 85 dB+ over time, and 110 dB+ occasionally,
can cause permanent hearing damage
• Listen at comfortable levels
• Most foam or wax earplugs lower loudness by up to 29 dB
Amplitude
• Sound is an event in time
• Chronobiology examines biological rhythms
• Tempo is the pace of movement or beats; the speed
of music
• Rhythm is the organization of movement, or beats,
in time; the pulse of music
• Entrainment is the synchronization of rhythms
• Prosody example “I want another mother”
Time
• Sound localization
• Interaural time difference (ITD)
• Interaural level difference (ILD)
• Where we are in the world
• Critical to survival
• Pinna
• Spatial organization of the system
• Frequency, volume, time

The video will begin
following the narration.
Bone Conduction
• Compressional
• Inertial
• Osseotympanic
• Cerebrospinal fluid
• Skull tissue
• Vibrotactile
More than “Bone”
• Dominant means of intrauterine listening
• Internal and external vibration
• A means of directly influencing the inner ear without
having to involve the middle ear
• A means of stimulating both the auditory and vestibular
apparati with sound at safe listening levels
• More safe and effective than air conduction as a means
of conducting sound as a stimulus for the vestibular
system
Unique Attributes of Bone Conduction
• Activates receptors of both saccule and utricle (Curthoys
2010, Halmagyi 2005)
• Bilateral cochlear stimulation secondary to vibration
(Stenfelt 2002)
• Faster conduction speed than air conduction
• Tunes in from 10 Hz into ultrasonic range (up to 100 kHz),
with best vestibular-based responses within the low
frequency range (Nishimura et all 2002, Hakanssan et al
1996)

Music For Babies
The world’s most scientifically
advanced sleep program
Neurosensory
Algorithms
Activates your vestibular system which triggers a
motion induced sensation, like a baby being rocked
to sleep.
Multi-Band
Binaural Beats
Engages multiple regions of your brain to entrain
and maintain sleep by matching the waveforms that
characterize all four stages of sleep.
Pink Noise
Originally Produced
Creates a sonic wall which blocks out distracting
noises as well as lowering activity in your brain’s
arousal centers.
Psychoacoustic
Music
Originally Composed
Originally and scientifically composed music with
low frequency, tone and tempo to induce and
maintain sleep.
Proprietary Technology
Sleep Genius
TLP Sleep entrains the brain to improve sleep regulation. Embedded
within these beautiful recordings are proprietary neurosensory
algorithms that produce sleepiness. The result is a sleep that's
natural, easy, restful, and refreshing.
Fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, naturally. Drug free!
Block out distracting background noise
Beat insomnia
TLP Custom Playlists w/ Waves™
WHY USE THE WAVES MULTI-SENSORY
BONE-CONDUCTION AUDIO SYSTEM?
Waves enhances the delivery of The Listening
Program® by using the two natural modes of
hearing—through your ears (air conduction)
and through your head (bone conduction)—
offering a deeper, more immersive listening
experience than conventional headphones can
provide. Not only does the Waves system
make your daily listening more enjoyable, it
accelerates and expands the benefits of your
listening practice!
ABT Providers have unique needs.
Some work with multiple clients daily.
Others offer free demonstrations for their
clients before getting them onboard with
The Listening Program® or one of the
other specialized programs. Still others
use our programs as a therapy adjunct,
offer short-term evaluations, and in-
practice implementation of listening
programs. For these unique use cases,
TLP PRO is the ideal all-in-one listening
solution for in-clinic professional use.
