About Focus/ILS

The ILS is a listening therapy that improves brain and body function by combining music and movement, harnessing the power of neuroplasticity. Specially treated music, delivered through air and bone conduction headphones, provides sensory input to the brain and body. The listener then receives additional sensory and motor input for body organization by engaging in a wide range of movement activities that are customizable for all levels and ages.

The ILS is based on the fact that we can change our brain at any age. Similar to building strength and endurance with physical exercise, we are able to build neurological pathways and synaptic activity through specific and repeated stimulation, a concept known as neuroplasticity that is the foundation of the science behind the ILS.

Highlights of the ILS programs:

  • Five listening programs developed to address specific challenges and needs.
  • Provides simultaneous multisensory input to help develop new, and reinforce existing, neural pathways governing organization of the body and brain function.
  • Cognitive activities challenge the brain to process multiple pieces of simultaneous information, which is reflective of demands required of the brain in our day-to-day world.
