Testimonials & Community Resources

"Our Neurologic Music Therapy® programme has been providing therapy to our stroke patients since Jan 2019. This has been a collaborative effort with our existing therapy team and Chroma and is the first programme of its kind in an acute stroke unit setting in the UK. NMT® has served to improve the well-being and mental-state of many of our patients at a time which is often so dark. Furthermore, its multi-faceted therapy has enriched our therapy programme and allowed the therapy team to reach many patients who were previously unable to engage in rehabilitation. The programme to date has been remarkable and I am extremely supportive of this continuing within our stroke service and beyond into our neuro rehabilitation service. This has been an exemplar service and we look forward to highlighting this work at a regional and national level.”

"I have had the privilege of collaborating with Neurologic Music Therapists and have seen firsthand how impactful this therapy can be for patients. As a speech-language pathologist, I’ve observed incredible progress in my patients' cognitive and linguistic skills through music therapy. JY and I worked closely together, tailoring each session to meet the specific goals of our patients. Not only did JY help improve speech, attention, and memory, but he also provided patients with a sense of joy and confidence that extends well beyond the therapy sessions. The integration of Neurologic Music Therapy® into our approach has created a holistic treatment plan that enhances overall progress, and I’m grateful for the positive outcomes it helped our patients achieve."

"Neurologic Music Therapy® has been such a pivotal improvement to our rehabilitation program because of the effectiveness in helping patients achieve all areas of function after stroke or brain injury. NMT® addresses all areas of neuroplasticity including salience, repetition and intensity. If I am working with my patient and I want to increase the patient's engagement and self-drive to stand a little longer, attend a little more, walk a little farther…then I immediately think of NMT®. The efficiency to engage the patient via auditory, visual and tactile stimulation with the instruments increases their attention to task and thus ability to perform motor learning to achieve their mobility and functional goals. Regarding ambulation, I especially look to add NMT® if the barriers include coordination, apraxia, aphasia, pacing, attention and visual-spatial deficits because with experience I have seen how much quicker I can address these areas with NMT® by adding auditory cueing via the guitar and visually having the NMT® Music Therapist present to promote upright visual cueing. NMT® is more effective than traditional PT interventions such as using a metronome app on my phone or having another person cueing the patient to look up. NMT® provides external feedback in various ways that can be so helpful and motivating to the stroke and brain injury survivors in our program. I cannot emphasize enough how much I support NMT® for stroke and brain injury recovery. Patients are so much more engaged and it has really impacted their recovery in a positive way."

"We have been very pleased with the Neurologic Music Therapy® work of MedRhythms, Inc. The NMT® music therapist is very patient, supportive, attentive, and adaptive in caring for my adult son Christopher, who endured a very serious brain injury several years ago. I could not imagine a better therapist to provide increased stimulation in our pursuit of meaningful recovery for Christopher. Highly recommended."
