How music therapy helps Poppy

Music therapy has become a lifeline for Poppy and her family, bringing them joy and hope. Poppy is three years old and lives with Rett syndrome, a rare neurodevelopmental disorder. It affects her balance, energy levels, hand function, and ability to communicate. But from her very first music therapy session with Janet, Poppy responded in ways her family had never seen before. “In every other situation, Poppy struggled to communicate. But with music, it was different,” said Rhiannon, Poppy’s mum. #rettsyndrome #musictherapy #musictherapist
