A
Message From Dr. Alice Cash: |
This has been
such an exciting month for me! The big news is that my surgery
headphones are complete and on the market for sale. People can
get either the pre-programmed headset or just the download of the
music. I've also had several hospitals express an interest in
studying the benefits of the headphones and music with different many
different procedures. We already know that they create a
safer surgical experience by reducing the amount of medications needed
and calming and soothing the patient so that their own natural healing
processes will function better.
The other exciting news is that I'll be speaking in
Paris in early April to a gathering of harpsichordists who want to
hear about my research on Wanda Landowksa. I'll be in Paris from
April 1-11, visiting my daughter who is an intern at the American
Embassy there.
THEN, I've been invited to speak at the Global
Speakers Summit in Cape Town, South Africa about "Music as a Global
Language: communicating with sound and rhythm." I've
always wanted to go to South Africa and this will be my best chance so
wish me luck and send me your own good vibrations! |

Now taking orders for wireless
headphones for surgery! |
Surgery
is something that no one looks forward to. People fear the pain, the
anesthesia, the possibility of not waking up, and even the expense.
However, sometimes there is no alternative. If something is growing
inside you that doesn't belong, it must be removed. If you're in
labor and the baby is in distress, baby must be delivered by Caesarean
section. If your knees, hips, or other joints have worn or
non-existent cartilage, they must be replaced. Even if you just want
to look younger or get rid of the bags under your eyes, plastic surgery is
the way to do it. For over twenty years now I have studied and
researched ways to get music for the patient into the surgery suite.
Now, a solution is available and my patented, pre-programmed headphones
are for sale!! Eventually I will have at least half a dozen genres
of music to choose from, but for now I have started with calm, steady,
beautiful classical music. For the most part these are unfamiliar
pieces because music has such powerful associations and I wanted to choose
music that the average person will not know nor have associations with.
These lightweight, comfortable, pre-programmed headphones are selling for
an unbelievable $147.97 on my website, OR you can purchase a download of
the music to put on your own iPod for $79.97. Both
options come with a free PDF document that explains how to talk with your
surgeon about wanting to use music during your procedure. Although
most surgeons are perfectly willing to let a patient bring in their OWN
headphones, some doctors haven't heard about all the benefits...benefits
such as a faster recovery, less anxiety medication, less anesthesia, and
less pain medication!
To learn more about the headphones or to purchase them immediately
click
HERE. I'm offering a money-back
guarantee on the headphones and the download so you have no risk
whatsoever!

What are the benefits of using music with preemies and infants? |
For centuries, women have sung to their
unborn, newly born, and prematurely born babies. It is a natural
thing to do and women don't need to be taught how to do it.
However, one of the realities of our modern society is that women and
all humans have become very self-conscious about their voices and
about singing in public. When I was actively employed by a
hospital, I used to teach the soon-to-be parents class about the
benefits of singing to their babies and how, if baby decided to make
an early appearance, s/he could leave the NICU early if Mom sang to
them while there, the same songs she had sung to them in utero.
Most parents were amazed! They had no idea that music creates an
immediate and powerful bond between mother and child. I assured
them that even humming as a powerful effect and that it didn't really
even have to be a lullaby! It could be any calm, beautiful
melody. If it's one that was sung to you as a baby, that's even
better! Lullabies make wonderful heirlooms to pass down from
generation to generation. For this reason, I created a CD of
classic lullabies that an expectant mother or new mother can listen to
over and over and then sing or hum these melodies to her unborn child.
The picture on the cover is my oldest daughter's best friend and her
newborn daughter, Hattie. To purchase the CD, click
HERE. You can also
purchase this as a download to go immediately on your own iPod!
