What is
Music Therapy?
Music Therapy is an established healthcare profession that uses music to address the physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals of all ages. Music therapy improves the quality of life for persons who are well and meets the needs of children and adults with disabilities or illnesses. Music therapy interventions can be designed to:
​
-
Promote wellness
-
Managing stress
-
Alleviate pain
-
Express feelings
-
Enhance memory
-
Improve communication
-
Promote physical rehabilitation
​
A common misconception concerning music therapy is that the client or patient has to have some particular music ability to benefit from music therapy — they do not. That there is one particular style of music that is more therapeutic than all the rest — this is not the case. All styles of music can be useful in effecting change in a client or patient’s life. The individual’s preferences, circumstances, and need for treatment, and the client or patient’s goals help to determine the types of music a music therapist may use.
