Interactive Metronome is a treatment that aims to improve timing, accuracy and motor skills. It was originally developed for musicians but is now used to help those with developmental delays, ADHD, brain injuries and more. Several studies found IM improved motor skills, attention, behavior and academics for conditions like ADHD, sensory processing disorders and more. Case studies describe individuals who showed benefits like improved concentration, coordination and independence after IM training.
