Auditory Processing Disorder (APD), Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD)
and Auditory Integration Training (Berard AIT)
A
success story of a family of 4 children who completed Berard AIT by Kathy
C., a parent who also did Berard
AIT with her children, Campbell, California. Reprinted by permission.
 We
all had Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) which is much improved now.
My oldest child who was hyper sensitive to sound improved dramatically
to nearly 100% in their ability to hear sounds
in
white noise after Berard AIT."
Our situation was unique
that myself and 4 children did Berard AIT at the same time. We
all had Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) which is much improved now.
My oldest child who was hypersensitive to sound improved dramatically
to nearly 100% in their ability to hear sounds in white noise after Berard
AIT.
Sound Management:
Berard
AIT had the most profound effect on my oldest child, who had the most
difficulty with sound management.
Overall, all four of my
children who did Berard AIT now act
more like a typical kids when it comes to social activities like running
and playing nearly nonstop. Before they'd just tire easily and I would
think their auditory they went on overload.
Humming:
After Berard
AIT, I noted something new in two of the children the oldest M, 11
and the youngest A, 6. They began talking in their sleep, but it wasn't
real clear what they were saying. Before Berard
AIT, my oldest started humming at 1 AM every morning (that's when
I'm cleaning my house so I'm regularly up). Daytime and night time
humming nearly stopped after Berard AIT.
The only time I noted the humming has been when my oldest is engrossed
playing a video game.
Bedwetting:
All three of
my SPD kids actually wet the bed well beyond appropriate ages. Two
of my children are most alike in behavior and learning ability and style.
They also share Hunter's Vision and similar minor learning difficulties
and strengths. My other children did stop wetting the bed about 90% of
the time for, but my oldest stopped just for 2 weeks (This all happened
in a one week period in about week 8 of Dianne Craft's protocol for leaky
gut.) but started up again with my oldest wetting the bed every
night. Now after Berard AIT, 2
children are dry every night and they are in underwear! For what
I've spent on diapers and pull-ups, water, soap and electricity in changing
sheets over the years would easily pay for a lot of the Berard
AIT and the supplement cost with these three children.
Hand Flapping:
My second
oldest hasn't been flapping her arms anymore since Berard
AIT. This had improved with the leaky gut but didn't go away completely.
Since Berard AIT she has stopped
this behavior.
