Music therapy employs music in various forms as the
healing force. The
rhythm or
harmony of music, the pattern of its sounds and gaps (silence) have a powerful impact on our senses. They often touch our feelings and emotions in a very deep manner. This will have a favourable effect on relieving our mental as well as physical strains. This has been proved since ancient ages. Recent research results also emphasize this. Psychotherapeutic effects are exhibited by implementing music therapy. Physically handicapped patients also found to improve their movements by employing music therapy. This is extremely useful in relieving the stress for people of all age groups and even in the case of prisoners.
