Abstract: Dance therapy can play a useful role in the treatment and rehabilitation of women with drug addiction. It works by raising self- esteem through an improved relationship with the body, giving women the strength to help combat their habit. The benefits of dance therapy for women at the detox unit of Holloway Prison have been confirmed by prison staff.
