BENEFITS OF MUSIC THERAPY
2
MUSIC THERAPY FOR BEHAVIOUR
Music therapy can be a key part of a positive
behaviour support toolkit, helping with the
management of triggers and regulation of mood and
emotions.
3
MUSIC THERAPY FOR COGNITION
Making music uses many different parts of the
brain, so practicing this skill with guidance
from a therapist can help improve attention,
motivation, memory, and organisation over time.
4
COMMUNICATION
Where verbal communication is lacking, speech
therapy isnt the only technique that can help
singing can, too. Plus, processing music uses
different parts of the brain than speaking
there have been many people who can sing but
cannot speak.
5
MUSIC THERAPY FOR COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION
Music therapy can help remove barriers to
community participation by encouraging the client
to discover (or rediscover) interests and
hobbies. Certain techniques are used to build
social skills, such as reducing impulses and
building recognition of cues.
6
MOTOR SKILLS AND MOBILITY
Actively participating in musical experiences
uses many parts of the brain. The area
responsible for coordinating movement (the basal
ganglia, if youre interested) is also
responsible for processing rhythms and movement
patterns, so it makes sense that engaging it can
help improve its functioning.
