Music is well known to have a significant effect on physiology and is widely used as an effective therapeutic tool in stress and pain management; rehabilitation; and behavior modification; but its effects are not well understood.This book explains what music is; how it is processed by and affects the body; and how it can be applied in a range of physiological and psychological conditions. Rhythm; melody; timbre; harmony; dynamics; and form; and their effects on the body are explored in detail; helping practitioners create effective therapy interventions that complement other treatment systems. Case studies and evidence from research and practice show how music therapy can benefit people with autistic spectrum disorders; Down syndrome; schizophrenia; and sensory difficulties; among other conditions.The Music Effect is an essential resource for music therapists; clinicians; educators and anyone with an interest in holistic therapy.
