The “International Non-pharmacological Therapies Project” (INPTP) is a community-based project to develop the science and practice of NPTs.

The Scientific Area is structured by the different NPT categories (music therapy, cognitive stimulation, physical exercise, counselling, etc). In each one of those categories, a team of experts work collaboratively on issues pertinent for its development.If you are knowledgeable in a certain NPT you are kindly invited to participate. In the Scientific Area there are also issues that concern the field as a whole: overall taxonomy, research methods, grading of the evidence, clinical recommendations, outcomes, finance of larger studies, econometrics, etc.

The Practitioner Area intends to serve all those therapists interested in enriching their daily practice with treatment proposals of their peers. If you have developed sessions in whatever category you can either upload them in PDF format if you wish to share without allowing changes. Alternatively you may copy/paste your intervention into wiki format so that your colleagues have a chance to improve it.

The Joint Area aims at making hard scientific facts easily accessible to practitioners. One section gathers TV interviews to renown researchers, another one lists scientific events and training programs (don't forget to upload your event!). There is also a Forum section to discuss diverse issues of our field.

The common goal that is to develop the science and praxis of NPTs to humanize and improve the quality of life of the elderly, their families and professional caregivers.

Any contribution is welcomed and supervised by an expert committee that ensures the information in our page is reliable and updated.

Do not hesitate and please check the "How write/edit article?" page there you will find some instructions that will help you when adding any relevant information.

As you may have already guessed, the INPTP is alive! We foresee the contents within each area will grow in width and depth. If you miss any scientific or treatment category, or a section, send us an email and we will create it in the blink of an eye.
