Relaxation and Music Therapy sometimes get mixed up, the importance of allowing relaxing music to permeate your life is key to helping your brain and body come to terms with many physical and mental issues. The power of therapy within music has been well documented, it is working with musicians and other creatives that encouraged Quite Great PR to take the next step and set up a service to help musicians to find the right kind of care to help them through mental health issues, issues that can stem from stage fright right through to the traumatic circumstances when a major label ‘drop’ an artist and the phone stops ringing and there is no longer a support structure, they are simply left to their own dark vision of the future.
Yet when you examine the real levels of other types of music therapy you find the wonderful charities like Nordoff Robbins who we were lucky enough to work with a number of years ago when we got one of our bands to raise funds for their great work with an event we organised in Covent Garden. The work this charity does with those who have learning disabilities is nothing short on occasions of miraculous. They highlight how the emotion and sound of music can change people’s lives and it is such a heartfelt world that they occupy, one that impacts positively not only on the individual with the special needs but the families who are given valuable time to take a step back and relax as well.
