This website is designed to inform you about music therapy and its many benefits on your body and mind. All information was obtained through extensive research.







The Miracle!

One of my musical idols is Jason Becker. Back in the 80's, Jason Becker was becoming the biggest guitarist in the world. At age 17, he was a prodigy and more. But when he turned 19, he noticed his leg was bothering him, so he went to the doctor. Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with Lou-Gehrig's disease, which is incurable. Slowly his body would deteriorate to the point of being fully paralyzed and having to breathe through a tube. He was given five years to live, but remarkably, he outlived the predicted life expectancy! Due to his fathers innovation, he is able to talk and write music via an eye-communication system, and he kept writing and releasing some of the most beautiful pieces of music ever. All this after 20 years of his calculated life expectancy! He is truly a modern-day Mozart and Beethoven. This is an example of the power of music therapy.

    Wow! Really?! That is incredible! I have no doubt that the music in his life contributed to this.
