Why…?

There is significant scientific evidence to support the idea that music is a true healing modality. Studies have shown that the use of music can lower blood pressure, basal metabolism, and respiration rates, and that it increases production of endorphins, which reduce pain, and salivary immunoglobulin, which speeds healing, reduces infection, and modulates heart rate. Music is being used to aid digestion and to reduce stress. Music is becoming a part of therapy in drug and alcohol detoxification, as an aid for those with learning disabilities, and with Alzheimer’s patients and comatose patients, as well as with the chronically ill, temporarily ill, the injured, and the dying.
