Science Overview
“Motor planning and sequencing is a
critical component of the deficit in a variety
of developmental and learning disorders.”
- Stanley I. Greenspan, M.D.
Motor Planning Processes of Organizing and
Sequencing are a core function of the brain
Early Studies:
Motor Skills Study
Special education students
Improved fine and gross motor and visual motor skills
Results presented to the American Educational
Research Association
Large-Scale Correlation Study
Timing and Child Development Study Published
• Conducted in Illinois by High/Scope Foundation
• 585 students, 6-10 years old
AJOT Published Clinical Study
3 groups of ADHD boys
separated by:
Control / Placebo / IMtrained
Statistically significant
improvement in:
• Attention
• Motor Control and
Coordination
• Language Processing
• Reading
• Control of Aggression and
Impulsivity

Athletic Performance Study
Comparison of IM trained
golfers to a control group
Produced significant
improvements in golf shot
accuracy
An average of 20-40%
improvement in shot accuracy
obtained by the IM group
Control group saw no gain

Overall
Results from Early Clinical Trials
Results from a pilot fMRI (brain scan) study show IM
directly activates multiple parts of the “neuronetwork”
CINGULATE GYRUS
BASAL GANGLIA
Allows shifting of attention Integrates thought and
movement
Cognitive flexibility
MEDIAL BRAINSTEM
Neuro-motor pipeline
Parkinson’s Study
“In this controlled study computer directed rhythmic
movement training was found to improve the motor signs of
parkinsonism .”
Daniel Togasaki, MD, Parkinson’s Institute
Neal Alpiner,
Rehab Medical Director William Beaumont Hospital…
“IM Neuro therapies have been
shown to be efficacious in:
Phase I (Acute Inpatient
Rehab)
Phase 2 (Outpatient)
Phase 3 (Eminence) stages of
client neuro-recovery.”

Interactive Metronome for
Rehabilitation Training
Jimmy Eggleston was the
First Rehab Case
Invention of Interactive Metronome
After 3 weeks walking
without assistive device
Interactive Metronome Today
Currently provided by
thousands of therapists
in hospitals, clinics,
schools and rehab
centers

Case Study 1: Jake
16 year old male - TBI from MVA
Severe impairments:
Sustained attention & concentration
Poor memory
Left-right discrimination
Gross and fine motor coordination
Balance
Case Study 1: Jake
After 6 weeks of IM Training:
Able to attend to paper/pencil
tasks for up to 50mins in
preparation for school
Reported that he could hold
conversations for longer periods
of time and now able to “day
dream”
After IM, only needed minimal
cues for L-R discrimination
Case Study 2: Veronica
37 year old female - CVA
Deficits addressed:
Poor attention & concentration
• Unable to attend to tasks for more
than 10-15 minutes without
getting externally distracted
Decreased stamina and
endurance
• Unable to stand for more than 1520 minutes
Case Study 2: Veronica
Following 8 weeks of IM training:
Able to complete simulated
work activity for at least 60
minutes without becoming
distracted
Able to stand and complete
household activities for at
least 45 minutes
Case Study 3: Brenda
6 months of traditional
therapy with poor outcome
Thousands of IM reps
particularly using her feet
Significant improvements
in motor sequencing
Improved gait & balance
