Music stimulates more parts of the brain than any other human function. There is so much potential in music’s power to change the brain and affect the way it works.

There may not be specific research on spinal cord injury that I am aware of but I can guarantee you music helped me during rehabilitation! I remember friends and family supporting me, and I associate songs to different moments during that period.

I’d love to share with you some really talented people with SCI/D!
