increased oxygen blood saturation
entrainment of heart-rate to auditory input
managing anxiety during medical procedures
reduced stress may mean lower blood pressure readings
Emotional
expressive and creative outlets to work through feelings
from being sick, or in physical or emotional pain, or
from being hospitalized
Cognitive/Mental
rehabilitation of neurological and intellectual function
Expressive
motivates communication through non-verbal and creative outlets.
Rehabilitative
