    9. Music Therapy The Biodex Gait Trainer 3 with version 3.X software can be configured with an optional Music Therapy component (see Appendix B for a treatise on the use of music therapy in relation to the Biodex Gait Trainer). The Music Therapy option includes a specially designed bracket to hold the provided sound bar and a USB drive that activates the music player software and the music therapy music files.

    This technique uses music as an external cue to regulate the body’s movement in time and allows patients to become in tune with their own rhythm. It typically occurs during closed-chain gait activities Biodex Medical Systems, Inc. © 2017...
  • Page 115 Patterned Sensory Enhancement (PSE) A broader application than RAS as it facilitates movement and movement patterns that are not biologically rhythmical. These movement patterns are incorporated into a series to form functional movement patterns. For example, hand and arm movements for eating, dressing, and other ADL’s as well as whole body movements required to shift from a seated to as standing position.
