　　Have you heard or read stories about people who are sick and have been healed by listening to music？Is it a miracle or a successful form of medicine？Can listening to music relieve pain?

　　Around the world，music therapy is being used to treat different medical conditions and illnesses.Some of the ways people use music therapy are to reduce pain，such as in childbirth or during cancer treatments，or to stimulate brain activity after an injury or memory loss.

　　Music therapy has also been successful in aiding children to overcome disabilities.Children can move their bodies with the music and stamp along to the beat.

　　Why is music a useful therapy？Music is relaxing，but it also stimulates our brains.Emotionally and physically，we respond to the sounds of music.But the complexity of music (the different tempos，rhythms，melodies and harmonies) provokes(激发) the biggest response.Thus，classical music is most typically used for therapies due to complex sounds and patterns.Although rap or hip hop might be fun to listen to，it’s unlikely that such styles of music would produce the same kind of therapeutic effect.Playing a musical instrument rather than simply listening to music can also be therapeutic for some people，helping relieve stress and anxiety.
