The Tomatis® Studio: Your Working Station
The pioneering Tomatis® Studio is a centralized hub that brings together all Tomatis® services into one integrated platform exclusively designed for Practitioners. Visualize a unified space where practitioners can effortlessly access client management, listening and behavioral assessments, and the ability to design custom Tomatis® programs—all within easy reach from anywhere in the world.
The Studio is dedicated to recentering practitioners’ attention on the essence of therapeutic and pedagogical relations while minimizing time spent on administrative tasks and maximizing productivity and efficacy in practice.
Traditionally, the process involved multiple steps, such as an evaluation with the Tomatis® Evaluation Database (TED), followed by a listening assessment with the Tomatis® Listening Test (TLT), and concluding with a paper-based anamnesis. This can be time-consuming and complex in generating a Tomatis® Program.
However, within the Tomatis® Studio, this complexity fades away. Specialized Checklists (anamnesis) tailored for Tomatis® use, Tomatis® Evaluation Questionnaire (TEQ) for client situation evaluations, TLT for assessing listening abilities, and the creation of various Listening Programs are coherently incorporated into this comprehensive platform. Accessible through individualized login credentials, this Studio metamorphoses and simplifies the Tomatis® experience for practitioners worldwide. Welcome to a new era of Tomatis® services with the innovative and interconnected Tomatis® Studio.

Tomatis® Bone Conduction Kit: Enhanced Tool for Sensory Stimulation
Tomatis® Infinite Headphones serve as vital equipment for the Tomatis® Method. Renowned for their exceptional acoustic quality, these headphones optimize sound transmission from the TalksUp® device. Equipped with a built-in transducer (vibrator), they transmit sound through bone conduction atop the head. This unique dual transmission, programmed with specific delays, aids in enhancing the brain’s analysis of the auditory message.
This specialized device serves as an excellent alternative to headphones at the initial stages of the program or as a supplementary aid to reinforce therapeutic actions.
This innovative solution facilitates working with:
- Infants and toddlers under the age of 2
- Children exhibiting heightened sensitivity to sounds
- Individuals with hypotonia or sensory-motor delays requiring intensified stimulation alongside the Tomatis® headset

Designed for use solely in the therapist’s presence, it allows for continuous monitoring of the client’s responses, enabling real-time modifications to the intervention as necessary.
TLT: Tomatis® Listening Test: Precision in Perception
Please note: The new Maestro comes equipped with an integrated TLT, eliminating the need for you to purchase this tool separately.
The TLT stands as a robust assessment tool within the Tomatis® Method. This test, short for Tomatis® Listening Test, evaluates an individual’s frequency perception via both bone and air conduction. Its primary objective is to construct a personalized listening curve for each person based on their unique listening thresholds.
While rooted in audiometry, this listening test functions as an autonomous assessment. Its focus lies in understanding an individual’s communication abilities. Composing a series of subtests, the synthesis of these components yields what is termed the ‘listening profile,’ a distinctive profile tailored to each individual. The test itself is straightforward: clients respond, either manually or orally, depending on their preference, to acoustic stimuli delivered via headphones transmitting sound through both air and bone conduction. Each ear undergoes testing sequentially. On average, the entire test duration is approximately fifteen minutes, with data digitally compiled for analysis.
The TLT incorporates a specialized technology, calibration, and usage protocol exclusive to this assessment tool. It’s important to note that while it serves as a training aid, the TLT should not be construed as a medical device. Its purpose does not include establishing medical diagnoses.
