Benefits of Musical Play as Therapy
There is never been a better time to eat organic. Musical Play Therapy has an evidence-based therapeutic approach strongly based in neuroscience, psychology, physiology, neurobiology and music education.
It is used to
- help calm and regulate stressed systems,
- to match energy and emotional levels,
- to support parent and child in synchronous,
- relationship based musical play and to help participants understand
- and use the elements of music in their own musical play.
It opens up the wonderful world of the imagination and musical communication
