AIT Treatment Guidelines:

Follow These Guidelines For Successful AIT Sessions!

1. Ear Health:  Ears must be healthy, free of excessive ear wax or discharge and without any active ear infections before and during all AIT Sessions for maximum gains.

2. AIT Protocol:  All Participants must complete the 30 minute sessions, done 2 times per day with a minimum of 3 hours between sessions over 10 days - or up to 12 consecutive days.  You must complete all 20 AIT sessions within 12 days.  Ideally you will do it in 10 days, but you may have up to 2 consecutive days off in the AIT Protocol.  If you skip a day, you will skip both sessions for that day.  Do not skip any AIT sessions before Day 5, after both sessions are done (i.e. after Session #10.) 

3. Activity Level During AIT:  Daily normal activities and routines between the 30 minute AIT sessions are allow.  Sessions may be scheduled at different times each day to accommodate schedules or if more than one person in the family is doing AIT. 

4. Timing AIT Sessions:  We recommend you plan for a less active schedule during the 10 days of AIT and with an easier schedule during AIT Sessions.  This way if the person feels tired after AIT sessions, they can rest.  For example, a 10 day consecutive period for AIT could be starting on the weekend for 2 days (Saturday + Sunday) then doing 5 days during week (Monday - Friday) then 2 days of the weekend (Saturday + Sunday) plus the next Monday.  It helps to build a less stressful schedule if four (4) days of AIT are done without the normal levels for children in school or adults with work demands.

5. Reactions During AIT:  AIT is an "exercise" for the ears, the hearing function and the whole auditory system that also stimulates the brain and body through the delivery of alternating high and low frequencies.  Sounds that were formerly distorted or not processed properly are then received correctly.  During AIT there can be a temporary return of past negative behaviors, changes in energy, changes in mood including more crying or sadness, etc.  Things that are also reported during AIT sessions are more tiredness, changes in appetite, thirst, bowels, sleep and even dreams.  These are temporary and signs that the auditory stimulation is being effective.  If you have any reactions that concern you, please contact us by email.

6. Improvements During And After AIT:  For those with auditory processing issues, anxiety, autism, dyslexia, focus issues, hyperactivity, memory issues, OCD, speech delay, sensory issues, etc. watch for improvements in their key areas.  Improvement can begin to happen immediately during AIT and are signs the stimulation is being effective.  These improvements are lasting and will slowly increase over the next four (4) to six (6) months after AIT is completed.

7. DO:  AIT sessions need to be in a calm, quiet environment free from other distractions or stimulation such as bedroom, etc.

8. DO:  Plan for sessions to be "quiet time".  Plan and choose a time daily that is conducive for timing the sessions to be in a calmer time of day for the participant.  If more than one family member is doing AIT, plan and schedule accordingly.

9. NO:  Falling asleep; don't do AIT too late before bed or at nap time for children.  Participant needs to stay awake during AIT.

Post AIT Restrictions and Precautions To Maintain AIT Gains

25. Headphone Are Permitted Post AIT For Spoken Language:  Headphones ARE allowed for educational purposes such as books on tape that are voice narrated, computer based homework programs or assignments, foreign language study, etc.  Headphones for spoken languages ARE allowed if the materials is played at safe hearing levels below 80 db.

26. NO HEADPHONES FOR MUSIC FOR 6 MONTHS POST AIT: We recommend that no headphones may be used during or after AIT to listen to other music. Read more here.

27. LOUD MUSIC EXPOSURE WARNING:  Loud music over an extended period should also be avoided after AIT.  It damages hearing and can reverse AIT gains.  This includes very loud rock music concerts or other events with extended hours of loud music levels, long fireworks displays, etc.  Bring ear plugs for these events if you must attend, for temporary use when needed and to protect hearing.

28. AVOID OTOTOXIC DRUGS AND ALL ANTIBIOTICS: Many antibiotics and other drugs are "ototoxic" which means toxic to the ear function itself and can alter auditory function with each use.  Read more and see the list of medications.
