The Healing Power of Music

To Your Good Health

Music is something most people enjoy but research shows it also has therapeutic and healing properties.

Music can help decrease chronic pain and lower depression. The right song can stimulate serotonin and dopamine levels, the body’s neurotransmitters that regulate emotional well-being. It can help lower heart rate, blood pressure, and reduce the stress hormone called cortisol.
