Books by Martien de Voigt

Dit boek is geschreven voor iedereen die zijn kwaliteit van leven wil verbeteren door een groter zelfbewustzijn en meer vitaliteit. Dit kan door het lichamelijke en geestelijke evenwicht te vergroten. Daarmee zullen ook problemen, kwalen en ziekten verminderen of voorkomen kunnen worden. Daarbij is de Tomatis Luistermethode effectief gebleken door de muzikale training van de hersenen en het zenuwstelsel, dus van lichaam en geest. Hierdoor kan men optimaal de eigen kwaliteiten en talenten ontplooien van de jeugd bij leerprocessen zowel als van ouderen voor vitaliteit. Met een vergroot (zelf) bewustzijn kan men de regie in eigen hand houden in een steeds complexere en digitale wereld.

This book describes how the quality of life can be improved by exploiting the central role of the hearing organs from the astonishing discoveries of Professor Alfred Tomatis.This book can be considered as a standard work to establish the proper execution of the original Tomatis method. It pays tribute to Professor Alfred Tomatis' pioneering work. It provides an insight into why and for what disabilities the method works so well. A wealth of scientific validations and cases are presented to illustrate this as an aid for practitioners as well as for potential clients and to convince the outside world. Details encompass anatomy, neurology, and physiology, pathology, psychology along with interpretations of listening tests, programming and equipment. It serves both therapists and clients, as well as generally interested persons and medical or educational institutions. The authors have extensive experience in applying the therapy; Jozef Vervoort, as successor appointed by Professor Alfred Tomatis, has run a Tomatis Centre for over forty years, recently with his daughter Astrid, being Josef's successor. He is also the leader of the large MBL-Tomatis network of the Mozart-Brain-Lab. Martien de Voigt and his wife Ann, in close cooperation with Vervoort, have about twenty-five years' experience. In total about 45,000 disabilities have been successfully treated by them and numerous therapists trained.
