LIFE MUSIC CARE

Life Music Care™ (LMC) is the process of integrating personal music listening preferences with a personalized wellness plan facilitated by an LMC listed child life and development specialist geared to support an integrative approach to child wellness and development.




A Life Music Care™ (LMC) Simple Survey is a simple facilitation tool that may be utilized by an integrative child life and development specialist geared to address personal music listening preferences that could help detect or prevent a variety of issues such as:

  • ADHD
  • Anger
  • Anxiety
  • Chronic pain
  • Disadvantage
  • Depression
  • Eating disorders
  • Grief
  • Insomnia
  • Migraine headaches
  • Mood disorders
  • Personality disorder
  • PTSD
  • Sleep disorders
  • Stress
  • Substance abuse and more

HOW IT WORKS


Music has the ability to provide a variety of benefits to various listeners who often make music listening part of their daily routine.

For many people, listening to music they select, enjoy and control in the comfort of their own environment can help them achieve a variety of benefits.

For example, personal music listening could help an individual:
  • reduce stress and anxiety
  • improve mood and happiness
  • reduce chronic pain and nausea
  • reduce side effects of treatment
  • improve energy and motivation
  • improve sleep and healing
  • improve memory and focus
  • improve mindfulness and function
  • improve confidence, self-esteem and more

A Life Music Care™ (LMC) Simple Survey is a simple facilitation tool that may be utilized by an integrative child life and development specialist that may consider and address various answers provided in their client's simple survey for further review or discussion.

Ultimately, Life Music Care™ (LMC) may not be right for everyone and may expose individuals to risks related to music listening and more.*
