WHAT IS SPECIALIZED MUSIC THERAPY?

      The Listening Program and the Sound Health series from Advanced Brain Technologies represent a multidisciplinary contribution of physicians, psychologists, musicologists, acoustical engineers, and musicians to elder care. The treatment employs carefully selected musical passages to create a relaxed yet mentally stimulating sensory environment, targeting those neural areas most deleteriously affected by the aging process and sensory deprivation. In addition to the more obvious benefits of sensory stimulation and enhanced verbal and non-verbal communication, Specialized Music Therapy lowers blood pressure, slows breathing and heart rates, and strengthens the immune system. Moreover, by boosting endorphin levels and reducing the secretion rates of the stress hormones cortisol and ACTH, this therapy stimulates natural painkilling and engenders a sense of well-being, as reflected in improved eating and sleeping levels as well as elevated patient mood.
