Interactive Metronome (IM) IM treatment has been used to help children diagnosed with: Sensory Integration Disorder                Non-verbal Learning Disorder Autism Spectrum Disorder                    ADD/ADHD Cerebral Palsy                               Many children diagnosed with pediatric and developmental disorders may show: Language deficits (poor listening comprehension, poor verbal expression, poor readingcomprehension) Poor organizational skills                         Poor fine and gross motor skills Poor memory                                               Poor balance                                     There is a clear correlation between the neurological functions of motor planning and sequencing and the critical aspects of human development, such as basic thinking, organizing, academic achievement, and coordination. When a child demonstrates a deficit in motor planning and sequencing, it is typically accompanied by problems in learning, coordination, or behavioral control. Prior to the development of Interactive Metronome, Inc. (IM) pediatric therapists were able to identify patients with these difficulties, but there was no system for measurable assessment and improvement. IM has undergone scientific trials and has been shown to improve: Attention and Concentration                          Reading and Math Fluency Motor Control and Coordination                   Control of Agression/Impulsivity Cognitive Processing The Interactive Metronome™ training program includes a minimum of 15 one-hour private sessions with a Certified IM Practitioner. Some individuals will need more then 15 sessions if they have unusually impaired rhythm and timing skills. For more information, click on www.scilearn.com
