Has anyone ever heard of or used FMA fundamental music therapy for autism? I watched a video where they claim it stimulates a child's brain to help to communicate? Hope you all have a blessed day. https://autisminfocus.com/fma/
I haven’t heard of the term FMA. I do know that music therapy was very beneficial for my son. (It was very disappointing when we lost our MT due to her changing jobs due to the pandemic). He… read more
We found music therapy after number of sessions helped - they have in Mencap/charity he goes to but not all the time
Starting at age 3 our child had 40 hours a week of Lovaas therapy aka ABA. It was great.
Hi,
I am looking for music therapy services for my 4 year old son on Spectrum. He loves music and recites a couple of nursery rhymes by himself when watching on IPad. His language is emerging and would like to try Music therapy. Have heard about Kindermusik in Tustin and McKee Music therapy services in Irvine. McKee Music services fees is exorbitant. They charge $100/hr. Any one has any recommendations? I believe insurance does not cover Music therapy services.
Thanks.
Hi KonkaniQueen,
Unfortunately, I haven't found anything yet to move forward in that direction. I tried talking to school last year for music therapy to be implemented in his IEP. The school didn't… read more
Gabriel had a music therapy session and loved it. He lives singing songs My insurance covers aba, pt, ot and speech. Anyone know if I can get the insurance to pay for music therapy?
DDD covers it. It falls under Hab, but I think you have one type of Hab or the other - it might not be authorized for both.
How do you find ABA therapy?
Your pediatrician may have good recommendations for therapy places in your local area. I would also look online for ABA therapies in your area.
We are looking for a dvd that can teach parents (non musicians) to deliver music therapy or use strategies.We have Hanen Magic with Music. I have to finish viewing, but seems a little young. He is almost 6 and enjoys country, rock, The sound of Music, and still likes some kids songs such as Wheels on the Bus.
My son from an early age (even pre diagnosis ) has liked Insingizi. African group.
My daughter is 3 years old and in an integrated pre-k program. She is getting, ST, OT, and PT. Her doctor suggested music therapy be put in her IEP but when I asked the CPSE chairperson to have a music therapy evaluation she said she never heard of such a thing. Does anyone have music therapy written in as part of an IEP? Any advice?
I find that very hard to believe.... in my 11 yrs of advocating for my son I have unfortunately found that the school districts (that we've been in) only do the bare minimum. Many times they think… read more

I keep getting targeted ads for this company and their drums, I guess because I've been googling and looking into more non traditional therapies like music/sound therapy.
It didn't even occur to me to search for one cheaper on amazon!! Thank you for the idea! I'm going to order one of the Hopwell ones. The sounds these drums make remind me of big windchimes, which he… read more
