MUSIC/SOUND THERAPY
APC is the only center in Namibia which can heal people through sound-therapy with a sound bed, musical instruments like; Harp, Violin, Cello, Flute, a Brass – bowl from Asia. Under the sound-bed bottom, 30 metallic strings are tightened and tuned in F-major; under another sound-bed are 30 metallic strings tightened and tuned in A major.
F Tuned Bed – HEALS PAIN | A Tuned Bed – HEALS MENTALLY
SOUND THERAPY draws the innate qualities of music to support people of all ages and abilities and at all stages of life; from helping new born babies develop healthy bonds with their parents, to offering vital, sensitive and compassionate palliative care at the end of life. Central to how Music Therapy works is the therapeutic relationship that is established and developed, through engagement in live musical interaction and play between a therapist and client. A wide range of musical styles and instruments can be used, including the voice, and the music often improvised. Using music inn this way enables clients to create their own unique musical language in which to explore and connect with the world and express themselves.
Because musical participation and response does not depend solely on the ability to speak, Music Therapy is a particularly effective intervention for people who have difficulty communicating verbally. For people affected by disability, illness or injury, working with music therapists can be life-changing. Children with autism can develop emotional, social and communication skills. Someone with an acquired brain injury as the result of an accident, alcohol and drug abuse can be helped to regain their speech. An older person frightened by the isolation and confusion brought on by dementia can, through the powerfully evocative nature of music, connect with these memories again and share these with others; everyone benefits.
