Why should we promote music therapy?
Music therapyconsists an interpersonal process in which a trained music therapist uses music and all of its facets—physical, emotional, mental, social, aesthetic, and spiritual—to help the need people to improve or maintain their health. In other words,it simply uses music as a medium to help the people to relief their psychological and physical barriers.
Music therapy is widely used, including various types of special education for those who have mental disabilities, learning disabilities, emotional behavioral disorders, visual impairment, hearing impairment, physical disabilities and language barriers. For example, music therapy can help autistic children to control their emotion, reduce their repetitive movements, improve concentration, self-care skills, communication skills and inspire their intelligence. Also, it helps those absent-minded children to pay attention, control themselves, improving social skills and build up self-confidence. Furthermore, music therapy can also let those children who have emotional or behavioral disability to understand and rebuild their emotions mode.
Due to the great attention to mental health in recent years, music therapy is used to relieve pressure, develop personal growth and self-exploration.
