Welcome to our site!

The National Standards Board for Therapeutic Musicians (NSBTM) consists of leaders in the therapeutic music field who have joined together to develop and maintain standards for therapeutic musician training programs and their graduates.
 
A therapeutic musician is a musician that plays live music at the bedside of persons who are faced with physical, emotional, and spiritual challenges. Their interaction generally occurs in the person’s home, a hospice or in a clinical setting.
 
The practice of a therapeutic musician is not to be confused with the practice of a music therapist. For more information click Music Therapy.
 
The NSBTM defines the Courses of Study, Scope of Practice, Code of Ethics and other rules of conduct for the certified therapeutic musician.
