Efficacy of Multimodal Sensory Therapy in Adult Acquired Brain Injury: A Systematic Review
Published 14th September 2022
Multimodal sensory therapy following brain injury is the practice of stimulating multiple senses such as audio, tactile, visual, olfactory, gustatory, and proprioception, with the aim of improving rehabilitation outcomes such as level of consciousness or mobility. However, the extent this therapy can facilitate rehabilitation is not well understood.
This new recent systematic review, conducted by THC researchers Michael Norwood, Chelsea Marsh and Heidi Zeeman finds that multimodal sensory therapy can be beneficial for patients, especially those in a minimally conscious state, or attempting physical rehabilitation following stroke. A patient-personalised approach may be more effective.
