FAQ About The Role of Dance in Healing Practices

What is Dance Movement Therapy (DMT)?

Dance Movement Therapy (DMT) is a therapeutic approach that uses dance and movement to support the physical, social, emotional, and cognitive integration of individuals. It is based on the premise that movement reflects the unconscious processes of the mind and that healing or transformative change can occur through the body. DMT is often used to help individuals with emotional challenges, developmental issues, mental health conditions, and can also support physical rehabilitation efforts.
