| Neurologic Music Therapy (NMT) |
What is NMT?
"Neurologic Music Therapy is defined as the therapeutic
application of music to cognitive, sensory, and motor
function due to neurologic disease of the human nervous
system." Treatment techniques in neurologic music
therapy are based on scientific research and are directed
towards functional therapeutic goals.
Neurologic Music Therapy (NMT) is an advanced form of
music therapy that uses research-based techniques to treat
the brain using music and rhythm.
NMT uses these techniques to achieve non-musical goals
such as speech, physical movement, cognition and other
conditions of the nervous system.
Any neurologic condition may benefit from these
techniques, including:
Populations that can benefit from NMT techniques include:
* stroke * cerebral palsy
* traumatic brain injury * autism/PDD
* apraxia * aphasia
* Parkinson's disease * Huntington's disease
* Alzheimer's disease * Muscular Dystrophy
* Multiple Sclerosis * Tuberous Sclerosis
* Epilepsy * Mitochondrial diseases
