Broca’s Aphasia – Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis & Treatments

Melodic Intonation Therapy

Melodic intonation therapy is a special technique that makes use of singing to stimulate and improve the Broca’s region. During this process, a therapist will encourage the patients to sing to engage their prosodic or melodic processing skills in the right hemisphere. Many studies have shown that this is an effective way to cure expressive language and retrieval words. The main goal is to access your language-capable areas and compensate for the loss of functions in these regions. The option is especially suitable for those cases which are caused by a stroke. [13]
