Book excerpt: Neurorehabilitation or neurological rehabilitation is a complex medical program that is designed for assisting people with diseases, injury or disorders of the nervous system. The aim of neurorehabilitation is to help people recover from nervous system damage and minimize and compensate for any functional change that may occur due to it. It has been observed that neurorehabilitation can help improve neurological functions, reduce symptoms and improve the overall well-being of the patients. Neurological Music Therapy (NMT) is one of the techniques used in neurorehabilitation programs. It is a therapeutic technique that aims to improve people's mental health and overall well-being by utilizing music's innate ability to uplift the mood. Making music, writing songs, singing, dancing, listening to music, and discussing music are examples of this goal-oriented intervention. This type of treatment may be beneficial for people suffering from depression and anxiety, and improve the quality of life for those suffering from physical ailments. Music has the ability to change physiological characteristics in the body such as blood pressure, heart rate, and respiration. This book explores all the essential aspects of using music therapy methods for neurorehabilitation. It will also provide interesting topics for research which interested readers can take up. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals.

Download or read book CLINICAL IMPROVISATION TECHNIQUES IN MUSIC THERAPY A GUIDE FOR STUDENTS CLINICIANS AND EDUCATORS written by Debbie Carroll and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical Improvisation Techniques in Music Therapy: A Guide for Students, Clinicians and Educators provides a clear and systematic approach to understanding and applying improvisational techniques. It is inspired by the taxonomy of clinical improvisation techniques as described by Kenneth Bruscia in his book, Improvisational Models of Music Therapy. Based on years of their own experimenting with the teaching of improvisation, the authors have evolved a particular developmental sequence for introducing basic techniques of improvising and applying them through role-play exercises that have been sensitively designed to bring out one’s innate musicality and one’s empathic regard. Part One provides an introduction to the techniques. Part Two focuses on how to apply the techniques with clinical intent in order to meet the diverse needs of a client, individually or in the context of a group. This section also addresses the need to enrich one’s own musicianship by providing musical resources, relevant references and guidelines for working with client’s playing. This “hands-on” guide fulfills the need for a clear process-oriented approach to mastering clinical improvisation techniques, and in a style that can be understood not only by music therapy students, clinicians and educators but also by health care administrators and providers alike.
