Following a brief history of the development of dance therapy, the author documents the proven benefits of dance therapy, particularly in enabling patients to verbalize their feelings and supported by research findings relating to a group of 30 patients, all of whom had been diagnosed with "archaic ego disorders" and with all ages represented.
