About iLs
iLs activates key areas of the brain simultaneously, trains sensory systems to work together, improves processing of sensory and cognitive information, trains our ability to focus and concentrate.
With sharper auditory and visual skills, we can read better, listen better, attend better. Improved self-regulation leads to self-confidence; self-confidence leads to social skill improvement. Feeling better about ourselves makes us happier people.

Parents and teachers from Parkdale Elementary in East Aurora, NY discuss the gains and changes their children and students have seen while using iLs. iLs is proud to offer a school program which enables those working in a school environment to implement iLs more effectively.
iLs is a multi-sensory program for improving brain function. The activities are fun and can be customized. The music is loaded on an iPod paired with special headphones which deliver it through both air and bone conduction. Simultaneous to the auditory component, the user engages in visual, vestibular and motor exercises.
