JURADO-NOBOA, Cecilia. Neurologic Music Therapy as a Neurorehabilitation model. Rev Ecuat Neurol [online]. 2018, vol.27, n.1, pp.72-79. ISSN 2631-2581.

Neurologic music therapy (NMT) is being implemented in hospitals and neurorehabilitation facilities around the world, thanks to the abundant neuroscience research and to the growing interest in the effects of music on the brain. Recognized and endorsed by the World Federation for Neurorehabilitation, neurologic music therapy is utilized as a non-pharmacological, non-invasive intervention to treat patients with neurologic disease that present cognitive, motor, and/or language impairments. This article aspires to introduce this discipline as an effective, evidence-based method of treatment for neurologic disease.
