Music Therapy & Immunizations
Here is a study conducted by Music Therapist and Assistant Professor of Music Therapy at the University of Kentucky about the benefits of having a Music Therapist present during immunizations with kids.
It was found that “kids in the music group also showed less distress – on average, less than half the level of distress exhibited by the non-music group – before, during and after the procedure.”
Aiding with emotional distress and discomfort are only a few of the many things Music Therapists can help with!
