Ever since we humans figured out how to create music, we've used it to make ourselves feel better. We use music to calm, to stimulate, to distract, to entertain — even to heal. What we're finding out through science is that music activates changes in our bodies, neurological as well as biological.

Studies have shown music to be effective in lowering blood pressure, improving memory, reducing stress and muscle tension, and managing pain. Psychological benefits include increasing your motivation to do physical activity, and an overall boost in your level of joy!

Doctors have found that when music is added to existing therapies for depression, memory function, and blood pressure, the therapies are more effective than without music.

If you have a blood pressure cuff, try this: Take your BP, then sit back and listen to some soothing music. Then take your BP again. You might be surprised by the result.
