"Did you ever sing a song and feel much better, was music the perfect remedy” did a song on the radio dial, ever make you smile….. lose yourself in a memory, first feel the beat, then move your feet, you already know the words then you clap your hands and remember the name of the band……Isn’t music the perfect remedy." Fridge Magnets - Icebox Music 2003

MusicWRKS for The Healing Heart founded in 2008 dedicated to my father Charles F. Ryan.
Music therapy has been advancing as a profession and medical tool since the post World War I and II eras when community musicians began playing for thousands of veterans recovering from physical and emotional trauma. They discovered that music could help alleviate pain, calm or relax patients and counteract depression, and encourage movement as part of physical rehabilitation. The resulting successes led hospitals to call for the hiring of musicians.
Music is a way to tap into the innate knowledge that resides deep in our cells. We live "in" music. Great music nourishes us in ways we don't even realize. It inspires us, relaxes us, energizes us--in short, it heals us and keeps us well. And music can be found everywhere in our world. While we may not always be listening to a Beethoven Symphony or a Mozart Sonata, the universe is a tonal symphony of many sounds interacting and vibrating together. Music is the pulse of the energy that courses in and through everything through vibrations.
