This therapy, which has been used clinically for more than a century, is one of the oldest treatment methods and is known to have been used in the treatment of patients in various cultures for four thousand years.

In this section, the journey of music therapy from past to present and the neurophysiology of music are briefly explained and its effects on health problems are discussed in the light of findings in the literature. |
