“…This almost becomes a 'reap what you sow' strategy as indicated in Emmy's story -a faith in the healing endeavour. Likewise, when Stephen coped with his burn injuries by listening to 'shadow music', reducing his need for medication, this confirmed the findings of several authors who point out how personally chosen music may be helpful in such contexts (Steelman, 1990;Edwards, 1998;LeNavenec and Slaughter, 2001;White, 2001;Good et al, 2002).…”

This study considers music listening and its role as a lay or folk healing practice in the lives of men and women with long-term illnesses and disease. A total of twenty-two participants from Norway, aged 34 to 65 with long-term illnesses and diseases were recruited as a strategic sample involving eight in-depth interviews from 2004 to 2005. This participatory and action-oriented research focused on whether participants could, through exposure to and exchange of new musical materials and practices, learn to use music as a 'technology' of health promotion and self-care. A novel 'participatory CD design' was developed, involving participants' reflections on and contribution to the making of four compact-disc (CD) compilations. Participants described their involvement with the project and their subsequent raised musical consciousness as beneficial, resulting in increased self-awareness and a new repertoire of musical skills relating to self-care in the face of illness.

Meeting the needs of the child in rehabilitation requires an interdisciplinary approach, whereby a variety of health care professionals are called upon to work together in planning and coordinating each patient's programme. The Registered music therapist is one of the allied health professionals who plays an integral role in this team approach. Music therapy is a recognized allied health profession, which is becoming acknowledged in the expanding world of health care as a therapy able to meet the expansive needs of the patient in rehabilitation. This article will present a literature review which advocates the role of music therapy in rehabilitation, with particular focus on the needs of the paediatric patient. Case vignettes will be used as further evidence to support the role of music therapy in this context, together with considerations for future research.
