I had absolutely no clue about Music Therapy until I met Mrs Rajam Shankar in 2006. She not only worked with me and my daughter but she also took the pains to explain how it all works.
I was introduced to Mrs.Rajam through Saandeepani for my son. My son who has an inborn interest in music has really been profited by her therapy.
