Music therapy promotes health and communication

Music therapy is aimed at people with disabilities, with the aim of improving the quality of life and personal enrichment.

Music therapy workshops aim to improve affective-cognitive, behavioral, psychomotor and user communication based on fundamental techniques including free and structured improvisation, songs and music. The processes that happens with musical improvisation can help people with intellectual disabilities to develop communication skills and their capacity for social interaction.

The musical interaction in music therapy, understood and sometimes described as a kind of non-verbal language, which allows people access to experience and express emotions, people with communication difficulties to interact communicatively speechless and everyone to get involved on a more emotional level based on relationships. Listen to music, also involves an interactive process that often includes selecting music that is meaningful to the person.

Looking at the above, we see important include music therapy in everyday people, perhaps as a subject in schools. On this subject, boys and girls would work communication, improvisation, expression... that would help them to live better. 

Furthermore, we would like you to know that from 17th to 19th of October will be performed in Barcelona the V National Congress of Music Therapy.
