Music… it can lift moods, decrease anxiety and even be used as an effective form of treatment. Music therapy is the clinical and evidence-based use of music by a credentialed music therapist. Combining expertise in psychology, counseling, medicine and music, music therapists can help improve patient’s quality of life by promoting development and creating peaceful distractions during procedures. Music activates multiple areas of the brain, and its therapeutic use can positively impact hormone release and pain perception, helping patients cope and adapt.
Le Bonheur’s Music Therapist Courtney Rosewall, MT-BC, is here to tell us more about how music therapy is having a positive impact on patients and their treatment.
