The phrase \u201cmusic heals\u201d implies that soldiers returning from different tours of duty throughout their enlistment, carry with them, battle field memories. We use music to soften the effects of these memories and other combat related injuries. To aid in the readjustment back into society, after returning from tours of duty in hostile environments while serving on active duty.
