HealthRHYTHMS
is a new division within Remo Inc (one of the world’s leading drum
companies) that develops and provides materials, programs, training and the
latest research supporting the use of drumming as an effective means for
promoting and maintaining health and well-being.
It is an internationally acclaimed, research-based,
recreational music-making program that has demonstrated significant health
benefits. For example, neurologist Barry Bittman, M.D. and his renowned
research team discovered that this specific group drumming approach
significantly increased the disease
fighting activity of circulating white blood cells (Natural
Killer cells) that seek out and destroy cancer cells and virally-infected
cells.
Our lifestyle choices pave the way to a path of personal discovery where
certain elements become the building blocks for creating a balanced and
healthy life. These elements might include diet, exercise, nurturing, social
support, spiritual practice, intellectual stimulation, stress reduction,
coping skills and creative expression. It is often a challenge for us to
find the time to create the perfect balance of these elements. This is where
the magic of group drumming comes in: it harnesses so many elements
(exercise, nurturing and social support, intellectual stimulation,
spirituality and stress reduction) in one activity which is accessible to
all age groups and abilities. Group drumming is an incredible unifying tool
that simply brings out the best in all of us.
You now
have an exceptional opportunity to offer this unique activity that combines
proven health-promoting strategies including self-expression, group support,
nurturing, exercise, stress reduction and of course, music making to your
target audience/group. It can become an integral part of your programming
today!
