Abstract

Music therapy has evolved as a supplementary treatment for a diverse range of mental and physical conditions. In recent years, the application of music therapy in addressing cognitive deficits has garnered growing interest. It has demonstrated the capacity to enhance memory, focus, and emotional expression in individuals. Furthermore, it contributes to positive outcomes in social interaction, psychological and physical well-being, and overall quality of life for patients. As a result, there is a compelling rationale for further exploration and investigation into the effectiveness of this therapeutic approach.
