Interactive metronome therapy

Interactive metronome therapy combines a traditional musical metronome with the power of a computer to precisely measure and improve a child’s timing, focus, concentration and coordination. That helps with brain development and learning. It also helps develop motor praxis (planning how to move), which is fundamental to self-care and other activities such as playing, reading and writing.

Using headphones, along with hand and foot sensors, the therapy method precisely measures how closely a child responds to computer-generated musical beats. The one-hour interactive sessions with a specially trained occupational therapist last 15 weeks.
