Music Therapy is making its way into the field of health sciences
with evidence of its effectiveness in different disciplines.
Chapter One presents considerations about social and cultural
interactions that permeated the music therapy activities developed
along an eight-year project hosted by a Brazilian university.
Chapter Two covers a research study on the influence of 15-minute
sessions of classic music therapy on physiological parameters of
hospitalised premature newborns and discusses the use of music as a
therapeutic tool for this population in neonatal care units.
Chapter Three reviews and contrasts the results of scientific
studies of music therapy made on the grounds of improving pain,
physical wellness, anxiety, relaxation, mood and quality of life in
cancer patients. In Chapter Four, the authors describe recent
studies that have investigated the acute influence of musical
auditory stimulus on autonomic heart rate control. Chapter Five
considers the importance of including Music Therapy in
rehabilitation programs for patients with Cerebrovascular
accidents, and its potential to restore upper and lower limb
movement. This book concludes with Chapter Six, a short
communication that suggests an extension of the representational
capabilities involved in the idea of the forms of vitality to a
wider musical scope than the traditional one, which is mainly based
on the parameters of rhythm, melody and harmony.
