Extra Lesson Therapy Program

Christopher- Age 7 years

When we first came to the Developmental Learning Centre my child had difficulty with hyperactivity, balance, oversensitivity to sensory information, sitting still and focusing (away with the fairies!). He needed repeated instructions, became frustrated easily and was a poor sleeper. He also had a tendency to act impulsively and occasionally lack tact. Instructions, comprehension, and organizational skills were also difficult.

During the course of sound therapy I noticed the following changes:

  • Remembering sequential activities became easier and now completes tasks.
  • I do not have to repeat instructions so frequently.

After the completion of 30 sessions of therapy I have noticed

  • Chris is not hyperactive and is a much calmer child.
  • His class work has improved – his class teacher has remarked on the improvement in his hearing and attention span
  • Chris does not drift off into cloud cuckoo-land and his memory is great.
  • He has become more independent, helps with household chores and makes his own breakfast sometimes.
  • He is less distracted and always able to stay on task – his class teacher has reported that his writing is really neat, as he takes care with his work, (but still lacks confidence and finds Maths difficult.)
  • Although not wonderful his sleep pattern has definitely improved and his fine/gross motor skills are so much better.
  • Chris is a lot calmer and less frustrated if he is unable to complete a task at home.
