Music therapy is a branch of health care designed to aid physical and emotional health through the use of music, either with listening, song writing, performing, exploring lyrics or other activities related to music. It’s often found as part of stress management programs or used in conjunction with exercise, and is uses in a variety of health care settings, with very good results in both short-term conditions and more serious long-term ones. Because of the way music is able to influence the brain, music therapy interventions have been made for stroke, heart disease, epilepsy, dementia, autism, and many other mental and physical disorders.
