Music can work wonders for the brain…
Music can soothe the savage breast… and it can also stimulate the brain! In fact, it plays a key role in the treatment of many illnesses and, more simply, can help develop our skills.
It can even help regulate our moods! It would appear too that musicians have above-average intellectual capacity. They seem to have a much better memory and better aptitude for reading and mathematical calculation.
However, there’s no need to be an experienced instrumentalist or singer to benefit from music: simply listening to it can also perform miracles! Music is believed to promote neuron development and increase our ability to learn … at least according to the results of a quite serious study conducted in 2007 that involved making a mouse listen to 6 hours of music a day for 3 weeks…
Music therapy often forms part of the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Its beneficial effects have also been shown in connection with other ageing-related conditions. For example, in Parkinson’s disease, where music improves motor coordination and walking, in terms of both speed and distance covered. According to a 2008 Finnish study, listening to music can also improve intellectual recovery after a cerebral vascular accident (stroke).
