Abstract Prior research has demonstrated the positive effect of music therapy for people with Parkinson’s disease, much of which is concerned with functional motor-related goals and their quantitative measurement. However, few studies qualitatively address details of the music therapy process itself. This interpretivist case study sought to understand the therapeutic potential of an eight-week integrated music therapy intervention involving a single client with Parkinson’s disease (PD). The music therapy intervention, focusing on motor and non-motor clinical goals, comprised clinical improvisation, structured musical exercises, music-centred movement, and receptive music therapy techniques. Data collected included audio-visual footage of the intervention and transcripts from semi-structured interviews conducted with the client and the music therapist at the conclusion of the intervention. The article illustrates the ways in which the integrated music therapy intervention addressed the client’s experience of ‘stuckness’ and other challenges associated with the lived experience of PD. Themes from the thematic analysis revealed that the client experienced increased motivation, self-confidence, improved motor and gait control, mood regulation, better focus, the opportunity for emotional expression, and support within the therapeutic relationship.

转移帕金森病的“僵硬”：音乐治疗案例研究

摘要 先前的研究已经证明了音乐疗法对帕金森病患者的积极作用，其中大部分与功能性运动相关目标及其定量测量有关。然而，很少有研究定性地解决音乐治疗过程本身的细节。这项解释主义案例研究旨在了解一项为期八周的综合音乐治疗干预措施的治疗潜力，该干预涉及一名帕金森病 (PD) 患者。音乐治疗干预侧重于运动和非运动临床目标，包括临床即兴创作、结构化音乐练习、以音乐为中心的运动和接受性音乐治疗技术。收集的数据包括干预的视听片段和干预结束时与客户和音乐治疗师进行的半结构化访谈的记录。这篇文章阐述了综合音乐治疗干预如何解决客户的“卡住”体验以及与 PD 的生活体验相关的其他挑战。主题分析的主题表明，来访者的动机、自信、运动和步态控制得到改善、情绪调节、更好的专注、情绪表达的机会以及治疗关系中的支持。这篇文章阐述了综合音乐治疗干预如何解决客户的“卡住”体验以及与 PD 的生活体验相关的其他挑战。主题分析的主题表明，来访者的动机、自信、运动和步态控制得到改善、情绪调节、更好的专注、情绪表达的机会以及治疗关系中的支持。这篇文章阐述了综合音乐治疗干预如何解决客户的“卡住”体验以及与 PD 的生活体验相关的其他挑战。主题分析的主题表明，来访者的动机、自信、运动和步态控制得到改善、情绪调节、更好的专注、情绪表达的机会以及治疗关系中的支持。
