When it comes to speech, having the ability to communicate efficiently can be life-changing. As a child, I struggled greatly with speech. I remember the most significant speech error was saying, “Frismas Free.” While extremely cute, these are the types of language barriers so many children struggle with. For children with autism, speech delays are widespread. FORBRAIN may be the solution!
FORBRAIN: A New Way to Improve Speech
The immediate solution is seeing a speech-language pathologist (SLP) work through speech therapy. Though the bases of speech therapy have stayed consistent since I was a child, there are some fantastic new tools on the market that are changing the ways we learn to speak efficiently. One of those is FORBRAIN, and you can use it in the home without an SLP or a therapist.
When I first put on the device, I can tell you it left me in shock of my voice. Though I know I have a speech due to my hearing loss and autism, it was mind-boggling to hear my voice in the way it sounds to other people. Within just one time of using it for 30 minutes, my husband noticed a difference in my speech.
A New Way to Improve Speech!
I was curious to see just how FORBRAIN worked on the rest of our family. Our youngest daughter has a speech delay and autism, so I had her test it first. She was not the happiest about it, but it was because her voice sounded so different to her. Once she got used to it, she thought it was pretty cool.
When I had our four-year-old son try FORBRAIN, it was pretty funny. He also has a speech delay and autism, but his delay was much more severe than our daughters. He has been through two and a half years of speech therapy to date. When he put on FORBRAIN, he immediately started smiling. He thought it sounded silly, but he loved it. He kept blowing in to hear the air coming through the device.
My husband and other two children who do not have speech issues also tried it out. One significant difference was that they did not hear things any different than usual. However, they are excited to try FORBRAIN for its many other uses!
How Does FORBRAIN Work?
FORBRAIN works by enhancing specific patterns of your voice, delivering your voice directly via your bone structure. Bone conduction transmits the sound of your voice ten times faster and with greater clarity than air conduction. The dynamic filter built-in enhances specific speech frequencies and constantly surprises the brain to increase memory, attention, and sensory processing. By using an Auditory Feedback Loop, FORBRAIN corrects how you hear your voice leading to better speech production and increased confidence.
What Benefits Can FORBRAIN Provide?
FORBRAIN helps improve the quality of your voice and your ability to listen carefully and communicate. Due to this, it can have an extremely positive impact on all areas of your life. That is why it is excellent for both children and adults.
Here are just a few of the ways FORBRAIN can positively affect your life:
- Sharpens your senses: The dynamic filter helps the tone of your voice become clearer and more distinct.
- Improves your ability to listen carefully and communicate.
- Comprehension of the written word is improved with the greater clarity of sound reception and more efficient processing.
- When speaking out loud, your own voice activates these auditory pathways in your brain enabling you to access memory more easily.
- Better Attention and Ability to Stay on Task: 80% of sensory information comes via the ear and this determines the brain’s overall level of alertness and attention. B
- Consistent use of FORBRAIN improves focus so you can concentrate better throughout the day and follow through on tasks and actions.
- Improves Speech: Bone conduction provides clarity and sensory integration that improves pronunciation skills.
- Helps to build self-confidence and esteem!

I’ve never heard of Forbrain but I am excited to look into it for the children on the autism spectrum I work with in my practice. I am always excited to try new tools that can help improve communication skills. Thanks!
So glad to introduce you to a new resource! I absolutely love using it with our children and even use it myself.
