It’s Never 2 Late Partners with Coro Health to Bring Music Prescriptions to their customers

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Austin tx, Texas, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) December 8, 2011 --Austin, Texas – Dec 1, 2011 – Coro Health, LLC, a new media healthcare company and It’s

Never 2 Late (IN2L), the leading provider of computer systems for the elderly, have formed a

licensing partnership that will bring Coro Health’s flagship therapeutic music streaming service,

MusicFirst, to thousands of IN2L customers.


“One of our primary responsibilities is to leverage technology to bring services that empower,

connect, engage and improve the quality of life for elders,” remark’s Jack York, Co-Founder and

President of IN2L. “The MusicFirst system checks all of those boxes for us and is truly the best

music product for our market.”


Unlike any product on the market, MusicFirst brings together the benefits of music through

thousands of clinically proven music programs designed by a team of music therapists, music

designers and neuroscientists.


“Within long-term care communities, no company has better demonstrated an ability to improve

the quality of the lives of individuals through technology than IN2L,” says Brian Anderson,

President and Co-Founder of Coro Health. “Through this partnership, both companies are able to

change more lives through the power of music.”


Researchers have long known that music has therapeutic effects on an individual’s health.

Evidence shows that if implemented properly, music can reduce depression, agitation, anxiety,

pain perception as well as aid with heart health, digestion, sleep and even reduce the need for

medication. Most recently, music therapy has been instrumental in the recovery process for

Congresswoman Gabby Giffords, who suffered a traumatic brain injury.


MusicFirst has over 1000 therapeutic music programs divided into libraries. The libraries include

therapeutic Supportive Music for individuals, Music Trivia for engagement, and Activity

Music programs designed to reinforce and accentuate the environment for specific activities.


“Our brain research indicates that playing a person familiar music that evokes strong personal

memories engages parts of the brain that are important for maintaining a sense of self and

experiencing emotions,” said Dr. Petr Janata, a cognitive neuroscientist in the Center for Mind

and Brain at the University of California, Davis, and member of Coro Health's Medical Advisory

Board. “With its ability to deliver personalized music streams, Coro Health's MusicFirst service

is poised to have a significant positive impact on the mental well-being of large numbers of

residents in assisted living facilities."
