Music Therapy

Music Therapy can ameliorate physical and emotional distress

It can improve distress caused by pain, decrease muscle tension and promote relaxation, decrease anxiety, improve chemotherapy-related nausea and emesis, and improve overall mood.

It can help manage postoperative nausea and vomiting.

It reduces pain intensity levels and opioid requirements.

Music has significant effect on anxiety, perception of hospitalization or procedure, relaxation and stress levels in brain tumour patients undergoing surgery.

Music therapy in treatment areas and hospital rooms may help to improve  mood and decrease  anxiety in cancer patients.
