The proprietary Music4Life Music Medicine Protocol is a formulaic, evidence-based patented system of assessment, education and prescriptive music playlist applications developed by licensed, certified music therapist Judith Pinkerton, LPMT #38972-LMT-3, MT-BC #06719, who has dedicated decades to develop this protocol with more than 11,000 clients in residential addiction treatment centers. Personalized and standardized prescriptive Music Medicine playlists are generated from neuroscience, psychology and music therapy-informed strategies. Certification trainings, a continuing education platform, DIY “Do-It-Yourself” products, and a telehealth network of certified mental health providers enhance treatment regimens by helping you achieve a balanced music diet influencing your broad continuum of emotions to avoid entrapment in anxiety, anger, depression, or sadness. Personalized prescriptive playlists may influence the use of medication three ways: physician-directed reduction, cessation, or prescription.
