TalksUp® device

Equipped with special headphones, TalksUp® plays specially processed and preselected music to stimulate the auditory integration system. By reproducing the electronic gate, this stimulation ensures the accurate integration of the acoustic information and helps the brain to better receive, select and process the information at any time.

After assessing your client’s needs, you are able to choose the suitable program among the preconfigured choices without difficulty. Your clients can easily do their program which is at least two 13-day sessions of 1-2 hours of listening per day. This can be done either in your centre or at home with regular monitoring.
