SERVICES
SONIC DIVINITY Music Therapy Services targets three points on the arc of human lifespan:



Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

With the cost of care in the NICU exceeding $2,000 a day, NICU care is a necessary, but expensive service.  NICU music therapy has been shown in clinical research to stimulate neurological function/tolerance to stimulation, increase oxygen saturation levels, stimulate weight gain, feeding rates, and non-nutritive sucking, promote parent-child interaction, and reduce length of stay in pre-term infants.  Reduced stay positively impacts the child's development, as well as benefiting the parents, the hospital, and the insurance provider.  NICU music therapy is a win-win for everyone involved.

For more information on how to save your hospital potentially tens of thousands of dollars per year on NICU care, contact us.

Employee Wellness

Workplace stress costs U.S. employers an estimated $200 billion per year in absenteeism, lower productivity, staff turnover, worker’s compensation, medical insurance, and other stress-related expenses.  75-90 percent of visits to primary care physicians are for stress-related complaints.  Given the enormous economic impact of these two statistics, employee wellness has become a major part of any competitive organization’s strategic plan.  Using the HealthRHYTHMS protocol and other music therapy techniques, organizations have seen an increase in job satisfaction, decrease in absenteeism, and increase in immune system of employees. 

If you would like to see how we can transform the culture of your organization, or hear how we will improve your bottom line, contact us.

Addiction Rehabilitation

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, a combined $276 billion was spent or lost in 2005 on health care, lost productivity, premature death, crime and auto accidents relating to alcohol and drug abuse.  Cognitive-Behavioral Music Therapy (CBMT) decreases anxiety, develops community while fostering healthy peer and therapist-patient relationships.  Techniques focus on increasing group cohesion and tension release, enhancing creative expression, and encouraging positive coping skills.  It is a welcomed addition to any treatment program.

Inpatient Medical

With the cost of healthcare rising, and reimbursement falling, the healthcare industry as a whole is struggling to find new ways to remain competitive and effective.  Quantitative and Qualitative research benefits of music therapy in a medical setting are too numerous to mention.  However, the main benefits include decreases in pain, anxiety, nausea, stress, depression, and increases in socialization, respiration capacity, cognitive stimulation, short or long-term memory, and most important of all… patient satisfaction scores.  Relaxation, music making, therapeutic singing, and creative arts are all implemented based on patient need in a group or individual bedside setting.

If patient satisfaction is truly the new revenue, let us show you how to catapult your satisfaction ratings above your competitors.  Contact us.

Hospice & Palliative Care

Completion, Comfort, Dignity, and Spirituality.   These are the four main clinical foundations of music therapy in end-of-life settings.  Music therapy treats the “self inside the patient” and reaches beyond what machines can measure.  Quantitative studies on the effects of music therapy on spirituality show a positive relationship between the application of music therapy and an increase in a feeling of spirituality, according to self report.  To be the soundtrack of someone’s transformation from life to afterlife is one of Sonic Divinity’s highest honors, and a founding reason for the company’s inception.

To have that soundtrack become real and present for your clients, patients, and/or loved ones, contact us.
