Abstract
Objective: The aim of the study is to conduct an integrative review that will identify effectiveness of Tomatis method as an option for treatment of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Data Sources: A comprehensive search of meta-analyses and case studies, letters, opinion papers, cita- tions in papers, references, books in English, French and Spanish published during the last 30 years. Results: A total of 14 articles and 2 books met the inclusion criteria and all were read and analyzed according to an integrative review protocol then categorized. It was observed that there are 6 quantita- tive studies, 6 with mixed method design and 4 qualitative studies. Almost all of them support Tomatis method (except 1) as an intervention that can help in children with ASD. Even that 1 study that esti- mated that the positive results were not related to the Tomatis treatment, concluded that the majority of the children in the study demonstrated general improvement in language. A number of studies indicated as a result that children were no longer considered with ASD.
Conclusion: Tomatis method offers interventions that significantly improve the autistic traits in children but more research has to be done, especially randomized control trials that will strengthen the evidence.
