Therapys

 Music therapy is an interpersonal process that uses music for therapeutic aspects - physical, emotional, mental, social, aesthetic, and spiritual to help patients improve or maintain their health. In some cases, the patient's needs are addressed directly through music. On other occasions, the method of therapy depends on the relationship that develops between the patient and the therapist. Music therapy is used for individuals of all ages and with a variety of conditions, including for psychiatric disorders, medical problems, physical disabilities, sensory disorders, developmental disabilities, substance abuse, communication disorders, interpersonal problems, and for people who are in the aging process. . Therapy is also used to increase learning concentration, increase self-esteem, reduce stress, support physical exercise, and facilitate a number of other health-related activities.

One of the earliest records mentioning music therapy is located at (c. 872-950) Al-Farabi. The meaning of the treatise from Intellect describes the therapeutic effects of music on the psyche. [2] Music has long been used to help people deal with their emotional problems. In the 17th century, scholar Robert Burton in The Anatomy of Melancholy argued that music and dance were essential in treating mental illness, especially melancholy. [3] In his notes, music has "enormous power ... to ward off sickness" and calls it "a very powerful drug against despair and melancholy." Burton points out that in ancient times, Canus, the Rhodian violinist, used music to "make a melancholy man happy, ... a lover more captivated, a religious person more pious." [4] [5] [6] In November 2006 , Dr. Michael J. Crawford [7] and colleagues also found that music therapy helps schizophrenic patients. [8] In the Ottoman Empire, mental illness was treated with music.
