Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I heard about the therapeutic effects of music on the brain and well-being. Can you offer personalized information on how music therapy works, its potential benefits for mental health, and any recommendations for well-being goals or challenges?

Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com

Thank you for your query.

I can understand your problems and concerns. Music therapy involves using music to address physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs. It can reduce stress, improve mood, and enhance overall well-being. Benefits include increased relaxation, improved communication, and enhanced self-expression. For personalized goals, consider creating playlists for specific moods, exploring various genres, or incorporating music into relaxation routines. Experiment with music that resonates with you to find what enhances your mental health and supports your well-being goals. Music helps as add-on therapy. Classic music works better for mental health. Music helps by releasing serotonin in the brain.

I hope this helps you. Thank you.
