'EASe was studied by researchers at Brenau university in 2012 and found effective in reducing auditory hypersensitivity in children with sensory processing disorder. EASe Listening Therapy The EASe Listening Therapy app for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad was developed for children with autism and other sensory processing disorders (SPD), who often respond to noise with exaggerated reactions and behavioral or learning issues. EASe Listening Therapy uses music to deliver short, intense bursts of sound, creating a sensory palette of sonic experiences that can help a child learn to cope with typical environmental conditions. This long-term listening therapy program exceeds the functionality and performance of hardware devices costing $10,000. GUIDE FOR PARENTS: 1) select preset 1 (do not touch any of the knobs, the presets are enough until you learn more about EASe) 2) press play (if no music module is selected, go to control panel to 'select a therapeutic module) 3) stop listening after about 30 mins. Always observe your child. Make sure to read the user guide on www.audioforge.ca Three Versions EASe Lite is a demo with one song and full functionality except for audio import. Sound settings can be customized and the app comes with four pre-set programs to help a parent or therapist get up and running with the program very quickly. Many thousands of children with autism and other SPD disorders have benefitted from using EASe music CDs. Try EASe Lite to explore the potential of the app. EASe Personal includes the full EASe app and a 60-minute module of instrumental music, enough to complete a ten-hour EASe program, with two half-hour sessions a day over a ten-day period. (EASe Personal does indeed have import capabilities.) EASe Pro (this app) includes the full EASe app and and a 60-minute module of instrumental music, and also is capable of importing a wide range of specially prepared modules available at www.easecd.com.
