Jack Dukes is a trained HealthRHYTHMS® facilitator. He has travelled the U.S. to train with Dr. Barry Bittman and Christine Stevens, MSW, MT-BC, developers of the HealthRHYTHMS® protocol.

HealthRHYTHMS® is an evidence-based Group Empowered Drumming program. The goal is to establish drumming as an integral "whole person" component for use in the conventional healthcare and wellness environments. These environments include: hospitals, outpatient facilities, clinics, rehab centers, nursing homes, wellness centers, assisted living complexes, and senior centers.

Jack's special interest is in working with the homeless, the poor, the abused, at-risk youth, and those who face challenges with alcoholism and drug addiction.
