Eurhythmics for autism and other neurophysiologic diagnoses : a sensorimotor music-based treatment approach /
Dorita S. Berger explains in simple terms the theory behind incorporating Eurhythmics in music-based clinical practice and describes how it works in practice with session plans and case studies. It can be used to treat a range of cognitive and sensory issues and the book covers working with autism,...
