Physical Injuries

Music therapy has been used in healthcare to increase the rate of physical rehabilitation and facilitating movement after the body has been damaged. Music therapy has been applied to patients who have suffered from car crashes, amputations, head wounds (i.e. puncture, bullet, or collision), broken limbs, etc. It also promotes movement for patients who need to learn how to walk again. More and more hospitals and public health centers are starting to use music therapy, because in addition to easing the pain, it also improves the quality of life for patients.

    I tottally agree with this. I know certain music, (songs,tones,melodies,words) can make me feel a different way and make me want to do stuff. Just like if I want to work-out I listen to upbeat music because it puts me in a certain mood to want to get up and move.

    I can understand how music can be of benefit during physical rehab. Because of the psychological effects of music, various chemicals and proteins are produced within our bodies, thus aiding in the healing process. Through the psychological effects, music provides the motivation and "healing power" many need to conduct intense physical therapy.
