Dear Dr. Saad Hussein Murad

Music therapy can help patients with cancer by reducing anxiety and help improve quality of life by easing treatment side-effects, supporting immune system functioning, enhance coping, and reducing physical and emotional stress.

Music which is a non-invasive, patient-friendly and pleasant form of therapy activates the brain by influencing several processes such as dopamine release and reducing cortisol levels.

You may want to refer to the article attached below. In this article, music has been used as a medicine to manage patients' psychological well-being in the often stressful context of a cancer infusion clinic.

Certainly! Music therapy has been explored as an adjunctive approach in cancer treatment, aiming to improve psychological and physical well-being through music. Here are some key findings from research:

Reduced Anxiety and Improved Mood: Several studies have shown that music can decrease anxiety and positively impact the ability of people with cancer to cope with their condition. Listening to music or engaging in music-based interventions may help alleviate anxiety and enhance mood.

1.Improved Quality of Life: Music therapy can contribute to an improved quality of life for cancer patients. By providing emotional support, promoting relaxation, and enhancing overall well-being, music interventions can positively influence patients’ experiences during treatment.

2.Better Pain Control: Music-based interventions have been associated with better pain management in cancer patients. Listening to soothing music or participating in music therapy sessions may help reduce pain perception and improve comfort levels.

3.Distress Reduction: Music therapy can help mitigate distress related to cancer diagnosis and treatment. Whether through active engagement (such as playing an instrument) or passive listening, music interventions offer a potential avenue for addressing emotional distress.
