What is Music Therapy?
An Evidence-Based Approach
Music therapy is the clinical use of music by a trained, board-certified professional to support health and well-being. Sessions are tailored to each person or group and may include singing, body percussion, percussion play, movement, songwriting, guided relaxation, or simply listening together in a meaningful way.
Who Benefits from Music Therapy?
While music therapy can benefit people across the lifespan, Mountain Health Music specializes in working with:
Elder Care & Memory Care – Helping seniors, including folks with dementia stay engaged physically and socially, share stories, reduce agitation or loneliness, and experience joy, creativity, and belonging through familiar and new music.
Hospice & Palliative Care – Providing comfort, relaxation, emotional/spiritual support, and meaningful connection for patients and their families during end-of-life care.
Adults with Developmental and Physical Disabilities – Encouraging creative self-expression, motor and communication skills, and social connection through interactive music-making.
Group Music Therapy
Group music therapy supports shared experiences that enrich the daily lives of residents, patients, and program participants. These sessions can take place in senior living, memory care, skilled nursing, or day facilities and may include:
Interactive singing and body percussion to spark meaningful interaction and joy
Playing percussion instruments to support movement and group cohesion
Improvisation that fosters creativity, community, and belonging
Partner with Mountain Health Music to bring engaging, evidence-based music therapy programs to your residents or clients.
Individual Music Therapy for Elders
Personalized Music Therapy for Your Loved One
One-to-one visits provide elders and people with health challenges a deeply personal and uplifting experience — wherever they call home. Sessions are customized to each person’s needs, preferences, and life story and may include:
Singing or listening to familiar songs that encourage meaningful dialogue
Gentle instrument play for movement, coordination, or self-expression
Calming live music for relaxation and comfort
Songwriting or improvisation for creative expression or legacy gifts
Bring the comfort and connection of music therapy directly to your loved one at home, in assisted living, or in hospice care.
