Music Eases Emotional, Physical Pain

According to researchers in Scotland, music improves a person´s mood and may help to ease symptoms of physical pain.

Leader of the study, Dr. Don Knox, says music-based therapies tackle conditions like depressive illnesses. This may lead to doctors putting music on a prescription.

"The impact of a piece of music on a person goes so much further than thinking that a fast tempo can lift a mood and a slow one can bring it down. Music expresses emotion as a result of many factors", Dr. Knox says.
