Alfred Angelo Tomatis, born on January 1, 1920, in Nice and died on December 25, 2001, in Carcassonne, was an otolaryngologist who developed a speech therapy method implemented by a network of private and public institutes and schools.

Alfred Tomatis devoted the majority of his professional life to studying the processes linking listening to language. In 1947, he began research in the fields of audiology and phonology, which led to the formulation of a number of “laws” presented to the Academy of Sciences in Paris. However, none of these laws were published according to scientific standards. They address the connections between the ear, the voice, and the nervous system, relying on very personal notions of anatomy. Several application fields have used the foundations of his research.

Tomatis’ three “laws”:

-The voice contains only what the ear hears (the larynx emits only the harmonics that the ear can hear).

-If hearing is modified, the voice is unconsciously and immediately modified.

-Sustained auditory stimulation for a determined period of time modifies the subject’s self-listening posture by a phenomenon of persistence, and consequently, their phonation.
