Neurologic Music Therapy - Stroke Rehabilitation (MedRhythms)

[@uttampatel3721]

I suffered stroke 3 years ago, left hand left eye sight and speech were impacted. I used to play HARMONIUM AND VIOLIN even before stroke. After stroke I stated playing harmonium with lots of difficulty as left hand was not effective for bellowing . However, I followed up regularly and vigors. I sing along with harmonium. Over period, my speech is fully recovered. I play and sing HINDUSTANI CLASSICAL RAGAS , bhupali, bhairavi and malkause. It helps excellent coordination of left and right hands along with vocal chords. I am still not able to play violin due to left hand fingers sluggishness, still I continue regular practice .

Awesome! I just discovered this now, i hope it's not too late yet for my Grandmother to do this because she had stroke last October 2018.

[@Medrhythmstherapy]

Rica, thank you for the comment. Results may still be possible for your grandmother, there is evidence to support that improvement is possible even months and years post-stroke.

[@ricsalojado]

Hi, is this available in India?

[@kargee7144]

How long did it take for Peter to get to the stage when he was able to sing so clearly as shown at the end of the video?

[@Medrhythmstherapy]

From the first video to the last video was approximately 5 months.

[@jacquelinehoward1734]

This is really awesome!!! Is there any university in Georgia or in the South that I can study Neurological Music Therapy.

[@annamarinium9653]

This is a great video. I would love to show this when presenting about MT in my hospital (I work as an MTBC). Is there a case study to go along with this?

[@Medrhythmstherapy]

Thank you! You are more than welcome to use the video. Unfortunately, there is not a written case study about this.

[@annamarinium9653]

MedRhythms awesome thank you! Any chance you have any of the information such as the time between videos, time between first video and cvs, frequency of tx, other current therapies?

[@Medrhythmstherapy]

@@annamarinium9653 The time between videos was around 4-6 months. He was receiving therapy from us twice per week for 1.5hrs. He was also receiving some speech therapy, but do not remember the frequency of that.

[@annamarinium9653]

@@Medrhythmstherapy awesome! Thanks so much medrhythms. Keep up the good work!

[@haileyreiss5770]

Hi, I am an MTA in Canada and am doing a presentation on stroke rehabilitation and music therapy. Can I use your video in my presentation.

[@Medrhythmstherapy]

Yes, you can. We would be honored!

[@ishanappukuddy5151]

Shoutout all the music 2mt3 students watching this video, hope y'all are enjoying this class as much as I am :D

[@lisalabellarte7713]

❤😊

[@rebeccawaxman2253]

How long after his stroke did he begin MT?

[@Medrhythmstherapy]

He began MT shortly after his stroke (a week or 2), while he was in an inpatient rehab hospital. When MT was implemented, the goal was phonation initially, which was about 2 months prior to the beginning of this video.

[@rebeccawaxman2253]

Thanks! Additionally, is this left hemisphere non-fluent aphasia? Is AOS present as well?

[@Medrhythmstherapy]

Yes, there was some AOS present initially.

[@abhishekbhati99]

Hi, my mother suffered stroke about 6 months ago, She had speech therapy going on and off but now its permanent and my SLP is using a similar humming technique. But, I'm facing one major issue, she is unable to speak words on her own when she wants to, although she can repeat more than 50 words after me but can't use them on her own. Any tips please?

[@Medrhythmstherapy]

Hi Abhishek, thank you for your comment! Please email us at [e-mail]!
