What is Berard AIT?
AIT stands for Auditory Integrative Training. The Berard method of auditory integration training stimulates the auditory system with unique sounds produced by the Berard AIT device. These unique sounds stimulate the auditory system to reduce or eliminate the problems within this system. Dr. Berard describes his program as a method of retraining the way the sounds are processed. When a person can process sounds properly, they can maintain a state of alert readiness, concentration, and effective comprehension. A weakness in any part of the system’s functioning can have a ripple effect throughout, and interfere with the overall process, leading to a breakdown in efficiency. The person may exhibit irritability, hyperactivity, fatigue, distractibility, pain, discomfort, anxiety and confusion. There may also be sensory processing problems with vision, touch, smell, taste, movement, etc.
