Relax your body and mind brings multiple health benefits. Our body does not work as if we’re stuck in city traffic or if we are resting in the comfort of home. And not only is relaxing to be at peace, so can combine some techniques specifically designed to take care of your health, as in the case of music therapy.
What is Music Therapy?
It is the metered use of music in the treatment, rehabilitation, education and training of adults and children with physical, mental and emotional disorders.
Its scientific foundation focuses on the power of emotions to treat diseases. The musical rhythm produces an increased activity in the motor cortex of the brain, emotions are generated and these in turn are transformed into chemicals that can affect the immune system and other body’s healing mechanisms.
Music is a natural sedative, so this technique attempts to deliver stimuli to the brain causing a cancellation of those that reproduce the disease, all by different melodies.
BENEFITS OF Uses and music therapy
The music therapy is used to:
Treating chronic medical or degenerative disorders (cancer, heart disease, hypertension, pain problems in general)

The human heart is tuned to music, so that the beats match all musical variables such as frequency, time and volume. Thus a fast pace makes the heart beat fast, while a slow beat frequency decreases, causing less strain and stress, and maintaining calm the body.
