TESTIMONIAL
Thankyou so much for everything you've done to improve Kellie's life. We are delighted. She has blossomed this year. She is less frustrated. She is definitely more confident. Her speech has improved significantly. She is happier and just wants to learn and experience as much as possible. She has definitely 'awoken'.

My 5 year old grandson had a lot of problems with hearing in the first years of his life, and even now, has grommets in his ears. He had not learnt the 'art of listening' as in the important early years his hearing had been greatly distorted. He suffered from a lot of anxiety and even at five years of age would either cry or become extremely angry and cry if he accidentally hurt himself or even casually knocked himself, fell over even on grass etc.
He has recently completed two sessions of Tomatis. Interestingly when asked to draw a picture of what he heard during the first two week session he drew two different pictures which indicated being saved, one a light house and another, people in the sea and a boat rescuing them.
It was during the second session that concrete changes could be seen within even the first couple of days. He didn't cry or even react when he would earlier have become distraught. This happened often after that as I watched in amazement. By the second week, this little boy's face appeared to change in that he now had a mischievous glint in his eye much of the time. He seemed so much more at ease with himself and his surroundings. I mentioned to his Kindergarten teacher at the start and the finish of the two sessions of the therapy. When I spoke to her at the end of the second two weekly sessions, his teacher remarked that she had been watching him and thinking "He's growing up". Tomatis is a wonderful therapy and grateful thanks to Colleen-Maree for the opportunity to utilise this therapy for my little grandson.

We found Masgutova to be a magnificent therapy for our son. We noticed immediate changes and improvements including better spatial/body awareness, confidence with jumping and climbing that has not been there previously, and improved interest and ability in reading. Plus, greater calm and better self-regulation. We were very happy with the therapy and remain grateful to Colleen-Maree for bringing this wonderful therapy to Australia. Colleen's background and experience in working with children is exceptional. It was a pleasure to watch such a professional at work. We would recommend this therapy to anyone who wants to help their child improve for a better life. There is nothing worse than being told by the medical establishment that there is nothing more that can be done. This therapy brings not only hope, but more importantly, great results!

I was introduced to the Tomatis Method and the Solisten Sound Training device by Colleen-Maree Bates of "Therapy Success". I suffered anxiety and stress related symptoms due to health problems. Colleen-Maree suggested taking part in a general program. This entailed listening to specific music using the Solisten device. The changes in my mood were remarkable in that throughout the program I felt my symptoms changing and improving on a daily basis. My anxiety and stresses are much improved in such that I feel more confident in my healing processes and ability to return to work. Some weeks later I received a positive outcome from my health professional who found the information about the Tomatis Method very interesting and concluded my consultation with her agreement that I should now return to work. I thank Colleen-Maree for her encouragement and trust in both the Tomatis Method and myself as a person.

I have had issues with 'the water works' for the past 28 yrs and resulting in 3 operations in that area. So holding on was no an option and was frequently having to go to toilets. Any trips would result in where is the closest toilet. Colleen asked me to have a go. I went home and couldn't believe that I didn't have to visit the toilet even at home. As I am constantly in there. I have had another few visits and and enjoyed the benefits of not having as many loo visits.
