MusicWorks!Therapy Classes for those with Special NeedsMusic is an artistic self-expression requiring little translation. It influences human adaptation to the environment and it demands immediate attention and focus, affecting moods, organizing the brain, coordinating movement, and entertaining the mind. Music is part of the human condition. Music Therapy is the application of music-making to foster positive adaptive function and behavior. This unique treatment combines expert music skills with psychology, physiology, developmental theories of growth and learning, play speech pathology and movement to serve all populations, ages and needs -- healthy or ailing. MusicWorks! sessions employ a variety of structured and improvised musical activities including singing, instrumental playing, rhythm and movement, song-writing, listening, imaging and relaxation techniques, to meet individual needs in a goal oriented manner. Activities are specifically designed for cognitive, emotional/psychological, physical and social concerns. For more information about MUSICWORKS! or to register for classes,
