The hospital can be an uncomfortable, unfamiliar, and even scary place for pediatric patients. Patients have to undergo painful and/or frightening procedures. In music therapy sessions, patients make their own choices. Just the simple act of choosing to play the maraca over the tambourine can have a profound therapeutic benefit for a child. Board certified music therapists use music to support children with pain management, nausea management, procedure support, sleep, and many other health-related goals in pediatric hospitals. 🤍🏥🎶
