Auditory-oral Training & Habilitation
Report
Auditory-Oral therapy is provided for children with hearing impairments. The goal of the auditory methods is to teach a child how to use his residual hearing so that he may have access to spoken language. The brain, which develops rapidly in the first few years of life, needs rich language input during that time.
Oral Placement Therapy
Report
Oral Placement Therapy involves all different levels of treatment. The nonverbal child often needs strengthening, sensitization, or sometimes desensitization to be able to use the same muscles for speech production. By working during eating or in play activities, we can achieve these goals in a natural fashion.
