EFFECTIVENESS AND INTERVENTIONS OF THE MUSIC THERAPY IN PATIENTS IN PALLIATIVE CARE
2018
Currently, music therapy, as a low-cost therapeutic approach, has been successfully applied in palliative care patients, aiming to improve emotional stress and mood. Besides these advantages, the music therapy can influence the patient to have a better social interaction. In cancer patients, especially, music therapy associated with massage therapy is very cost-effective, pointing to the need for the formulation of other non-pharmacological methods. Music is intrinsically related to the reduction of pain, anxiety and stress, as well as a direct relationship with spiritual improvement and quality of life. Music therapy reinforces multidisciplinary care for the patient in palliative care, and may even reduce pain in those affected.
