‘n Franse oor-, neus- en keel-spesialis, Dr Guy Bérard, het begin agterkom dat hy besig was om doof te word. In sy soeke om sy eie progressiewe doofheid to stuit het hy ‘n behandeling ontwerp waar elektronies gemodeuleerde musiek gebruik word om die gehoorsisteem en luister-meganisme weer na optimale funksie to herstel. Deur hierdie behandeling is dit moontlik om die struikelblokke in die weg na goeie ouditiewe prosessering to verwyder. Daar is verskeie teorieë waarom AIT so effektief is.

This article presents a hypothesis as to a possible “cure” for disorders of the Basal Ganglia. The therapeutic considerations that this hypothesis pose are that a sufferer’s consciousness, communication, reason, movement, memory, mood and rhythm of self can be liberated if the bio-chemical aetiology of these disorders is better understood (as well as parallel links), if detoxification and nutritional re-balancing of the sub-system is effected, which, in turn, will release neuro-trophic factors that can respond to intensive re-patterning of sensory-motor pathways within a therapeutic context.
