HEALING HARP

Healing Music - Played Live For You

I bring the music to you!

About Therapeutic Music

Music has the amazing ability to heal us across great distances and time. Especially in times of difficulty and stress, music can be the greatest gift we can give to ourselves and our loved ones. In one 30-minute therapeutic session, listeners can experience deep relaxation and a release of tension, as they are carried away on the sounds and rhythms that have been carefully chosen for them.

Receiving the gift of Live Therapeutic Music played specifically for you on Cathy's beautiful harp is an experience you will never forget!

Mom was extremely weak during her last weeks, but she was able to thoroughly enjoy Cathy's Healing Harp performance right there in her own bedroom. What a balm for her and then for my sisters and me as we had Cathy play during Mom's visitation and funeral service as well.

Cathy has provided great happiness, relaxation, stress relief and comfort as my mother recovers from her fall.
This is the highlight of my mother's week!

Cathy's harp music brings a feeling of calm, not only to the residents but also to staff passing by as the music is heard beyond the room. Cathy is very knowledgeable about the effects of music on healing, and attentive to resident's needs, asking staff for our input on who would most benefit.

I have observed Ms. Cathy playing for several elders who are agitated. Once she starts playing for them they calm down, becoming more relaxed. I believe the music is also very beneficial to our residents with advanced dementia. It has a positive impact on the elder's quality of life no matter what stage they are in.

Cathys Healing Harp provides calm, relaxing music and compassionate companionship. We love Cathy and her harp music.

Cathy's music makes me happy - please continue to come!

The music makes me forget about my ailments.

Truly something very pleasant to look forward to; a sense of caring, peace and joy.

With eyes closed I felt loved and cared for, with eyes open I was fascinated watching gifted fingers and dancing harp strings.

Harp music is a welcome respite from constant announcements over the PA system, and melts tension away.

Cathy's harp music helps me to live longer.
