Benefits

Music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways. The following are some of the effects of music, which help to explain the effectiveness of music therapy:

* State of Mind: Music can also be used to bring a more positive state of mind, helping to keep depression and anxiety at bay. This can help prevent the stress response from wreaking havoc on the body, and can help keep creativity and optimism levels higher, bringing many other benefits.

* Stimulation and relaxation: Research has shown that music can influence brainwave function, heart and breathing rates. This can help counteract or prevent the damaging effects of chronic stress, greatly promoting not only relaxation, but health.

* Other Benefits: Music has also been found to bring many other benefits, such as lowering blood pressure (which can also reduce the risk of stroke and other health problems over time), boost immunity, ease muscle tension, and more.
