Didn’t you know that
Physical Therapist will be a good prospect for you as a future profession? According to the Department of Labor in the US
the employment rate will increase as much as 30 percent by 2018, a sign that Filipinos
can get a big share of this pie, most especially those currently enrolled in
this course.
The decline in the demand for
nursing services in US and Europe created an employment vacuum in our country
for those who wanted to work abroad. In this scenario, the therapy industry can cushion the negative impact
of the decline.
To know more about
Physical Therapy and other rehab related profession attend the upcoming
Filipino Therapist Expo and Conference, September 24-25, 2011 at Crown Plaza,
Ortigas Center.

As what an old adage goes
“music can change the world because it can change people”. Truly music has
captured many people in the world. And as we believe this is another way of
letting other people knows what and how we feel, when we are muted by our
words. Well, what is the relation of music on the upcoming event the 1st
Filipino Therapist Expo and Conference?
Research
has shown that music has a profound effect on your body and psyche.In fact
there is also a growing field of health care as Music Theraphy which uses music
to heal. Music Therapy is an allied health profession and a field of scientific
research which studies correlations between the process of clinical therapy and
biomusciology, musical acoustics, music theory, psychoacoustics and comparative
musicology. Music therapists are found in nearly every area of the helping
professions. Some commonly found practices include developmental work
(communication, motor skills, etc.) with individuals with special needs,
songwriting and listening in reminiscence/orientation work with the elderly,
processing and relaxation work, and rhythmic entrainment for physical
rehabilitation in stroke victims.
In line with this
growing demand for the Music Therapist, the 1st Filipino therapist is
privileged to have one of the Practitioners on the said field. Ms. Celeste
Sanchez a Music Therapist will share her knowledge and wide experience on this
very specialized field.
Ms.Sanchez is armed with her own visions “to enable persons with developmental
disabilities overcome their traumas and become creative, productive,
self-reliant whole persons and a mission of providing special education, training,
livelihood assistance, rehabilitation and development to persons with
developmental disabilities, through music and arts therapy, including the
physical, psychosocial, intellectual and spiritual well-being of the
beneficiaries”. With this surely she will be able to help us realize that music
can be consider as a helping aid and will definitely share broad knowledge and
own experience as she manage and encounter instances that lead her to the music
therapy industry. As she continuously reaching the goal she
manage to have found founder and
chairman of several organization named Divine Mercy Mobile Center of Music
& Arts Therapy, Celestials little Angels Foundation, Inc., and
PhilipineAsociation of Music and Arts Therapist which are a non-government organization
that mainly promotes and provides learning,training, rehabilitation and develop
ones disability through music arts and therapy.
Ms. Sanchez has put up recitals that showcase that disabled were able to
do things that some taught they can she still
did not consider herself yet as a Music Therapist. Until the time has come that
her work was being noticed she was then consider as a Music therapist. Ms.
Sanchez has also written two books that were entitled What Music Theraphy Did
to George (2005) and Special Songs for Chilren (2005). She is an
undergraduate of Master in Special education in De La Salle University, has the
Master Classes in Piano in St. Scholastica’s College, Bachelor of Education in
Asian Institute of Arts & Sciences, and has undergone into Choral
Conducting & Choral Arrangement in University of the Philippines.

1.
Difficult
The process is like trekking the top of Mt. Everest (need
I say more). Researching and creating a bid proposal is no easy task.
2.
Detailed
God is in the details. One missed
detail and it might spell the difference to profitability or success of the
event. Actually, the first thing is the event organizer winning the bid.
3. Creative
Process
Bidding is a creative process. You must have a vision
to see the end of the tunnel. You must have a laser eye to see what will happen
to the event from start to finish.
4.
Team Effort
No bid is an island. It is a byproduct of
collaboration. It is a handmade of a lot of people.
5.
Cloud 9
Winning a bid is like being placed
in Cloud 9. The process it took to create the bid, present the bid and win the
bid is long and winding; and winning it is a spectacular moment that all event
organizers will always wanted to undergo.

1. Continuity
A Tourism Plan was crafted and we spent
Million of pesos for this. I just hope that there will be continuity of the
good projects and action that was started under his term
2. Timeliness
We are in a middle of the biggest
event of MICE where every one of the industry players are celebrating and
looking forward to the glorious future of a unified MICE industry. Then this
sad story explodes in our face. It is not a good sign for our international
buyers and visitors that attended MICECON.
Anyways, the Philippines are a beautiful country and product
for tourism. For the MICE Industry to prosper a unified action – one that set
aside personal interest and upholds the country’s interest is the key to make
it again of the top MICE destination in Asia and the World.

The yearly
spectacle for the Meetings, Incentives, Conventions and Events and Exhibition
industry starts today.
Last year’s
event was something of a magical wonderland; this is the reason why I am so
very looking forward for what is in store for MICECON 2011 here in Cebu.
Yes, the trip
for an entertainment show in the Cebu Bilibid Prison is something to look
forward to. However, I am keenly waiting who will shine in year’s event for the
thematic costumes. This particular part of MICECON brings out the best in all
the members of the industry. Also, a feature something everyone gets awed or
amazed with.
Don’t get me
wrong, the learnings and networks to be generated here is tremendous. But in
this industry, we do this every day – learn and network. This is the reason the
sideshows are the main shows for all the delegates.
Ohh well I
really can’t wait for MICECON now that I am here in Cebu and this afternoon is
the first day of the event.
