Music can be an effective tool for therapy

Music is a powerful force that evokes strong emotions, brings back heartwarming memories, and provides a way to express yourself.

With this type of impact, it’s not surprising that music can be an effective tool for therapy.

The right music can be an encouraging tool to help you be more physically active. More movement, whether that’s walking, dancing, or stretching along with music, can improve the following:

-Heart and cardiovascular health

-Muscle strength

-Bone density

-Balance and coordination

-Flexibility

Directing a person's attention away from their pain with music therapy can help ease pain and lessen stress, too.

The same tools that promote physical health through music therapy can also improve mental health by reducing symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression.
