Music for Institutions
Since the dawn of history, people have used music to heal the injured and sooth the afflicted. Modern research shows there is a marked improvement in healing rates after injury or surgery when music is present. Music can fight depression and relieve stress. Many studies indicate music may even counter the effects of Alzheimer's. (more) Early in 2009 I began offering my services to retirement communities, assisted living centers, Alzheimer's centers, hospitals, and rehabilitation facilities in Central California. Since that time I've played for hundreds of residents and I add new accounts all the time. |
My approach is simple and straight forward--I play the sax and sing using backing tracks through a small P.A. My playlist consists of old standards and light jazz tunes the residents all know & love--they always ask me to return! Perhaps you've been considering adding the healing effects of music to your regimen. Maybe you just want to add a fresh sound to your existing program. My rates are quite reasonable. Contact me here to discuss the possibilities. |
