Just as exercise is used as therapy for many things, music therapy has increased in popularity for treating stress, mental disorders, disabilities and physical pain. Many scientific studies have already proven the beneficial effects of music on the body; it slows breathing, lowers blood pressure and even boosts the immune system. Music also increases brain power and enhances creativity. So watch out Beethoven because your hidden potential may be unlocked the next time you turn the radio on. Don’t procrastinate and hit those summer concerts to get your dose of music. Not only will you get to groove to your favorite tunes, but it can improve your health.
