"This practical manual provides comprehensive guidance for clinicians on the application of music therapy methods in neurorehabilitation. Felicity Baker and Jeanette Tamplin draw on research findings and their own clinical experience to present useful step-by-step instructions and guidelines on how to implement music therapy techniques for a range of therapeutic needs. Photographs clearly illustrate interventions for physical rehabilitation, for example through the use of musical instruments to encourage targeted movement. The authors provide resources and list suitable songs for use in immediate memory or abstract thinking tasks, among others. In her chapter on paediatric patients, Jeanette Kennelly demonstrates how procedures can be adapted for working specifically with children. A comprehensive list of terminology commonly used in neurological rehabilitation is also included." "Music Therapy Methods in Neurorehabilitation is an invaluable reference book for music therapy clinicians and students. It is also suitable for work with other populations, in particular for work in special education."--BOOK JACKET.
