Austin tx -- Free-Press-Release.com-- Feb 13, 2012 -- Austin, Texas – Feb 10, 2012 – Coro Health, LLC, a new media healthcare company and MyGait, the leader for senior technology, have formed a licensing partnership that will bring Coro Health’s flagship therapeutic music streaming service, MusicFirst, to MyGait customers throughout the United States.
"MyGait is excited to partner with Coro Health to offer their MusicFirst program to our community partners. We are always looking for ways to enrich the computing experience for our users,” commented MyGait CEO Jeff Hill. “This program is a perfect way to offer our administrators a way to implement meaningful social and cognitive engagement through music. We look forward to a long partnership that will undoubtedly enhance the quality of life of thousands of seniors.”
MusicFirst builds individualized therapeutic music programs that support a wide range of health issues through a proprietary and clinically proven process of constructing songs into a very specific order. The process and clinical results were built by a team of music therapists, designers and neuroscientists and have been published in the Journal of Music and Medicine.
"For over a decade, MyGait has been at the forefront of driving social engagement through intelligent design. With an intuitive and senior-friendly approach, they offer a truly unique consumer experience," says Brian Anderson, President and Co-Founder of CoroHealth. "MyGait understands the power of music and the impact it makes on people's lives. We are very proud to have MusicFirst included as an integral part of their overall solution."
The power of music and its ability to help with a wide range of physical and emotional issues is well documented. “Therapeutic music can have exciting results for patients with neurological conditions because of the enriched sensory stimulus that it allows,” said Dr. Concetta Tomaino, Executive Director of the Institute for Music and Neurologic Function and Coro Health Medical Advisory Board Member.
Most recently, the field of music therapy has received increased attention and awareness because of the instrumental role it has player in the recovery process for Congresswoman Gabby Giffords, who suffered a traumatic brain injury.
MusicFirst has over 1000 therapeutic music programs divided into libraries. The libraries include therapeutic Supportive Music for individuals, Music Trivia for engagement, Activity Music programs designed to reinforce and accentuate the environment for specific activities, Dining music and music specifically designed to assist with Sundown Syndrome.
