During one session, the integration of several therapeutic goals may be targeted. The client is better prepared for community living, workplace, and school. The body's physiology changes from one of stress to one of deep relaxation, from one of fear to one of creativity and inspiration. Implementing the arts places a person in a different brain wave pattern, affecting the autonomic nervous system, the hormonal balance, and the brain neurotransmitters. Art instantly affects every cell in the body to create a healing physiology stimulating the optimal operation of the immune system and blood flow to all organs.
Art positively changes perception of pain and improves attitude and emotional state.
