Group music therapy focuses on social skills, enhanced quality of life, movement, vocalizations, and overall personal wellness.
This setting of a music therapy group is fun, allowing patients to let loose - sing, dance, and express themselves while also working on lowering anxiety and raising awareness of others.
Music therapy groups cause patients to laugh, to reminisce, to move, to sing, have elevated moods, and feel healthier!
It is sometimes more cost effective for independent living facilities to choose group music therapy sessions over individual sessions because groups cater to more people in the same amount of time.
