Some effects of music you may not know
What is music is a question many people wonder. Every day, we use a lot of musical concepts, but the content of this concept is not everyone can grasp. My name is Timothy OSullivan Below, the article would like to share the concept of music and some effects of music that you may not know.
After learning about the concept of music, let's find out some wonderful effects of music on human health.
Music brings happiness
William James once said, “I don't sing because I'm happy; I am happy because I sing.”
Analysts have shown that, when listening to your favorite song, your brain will release dopamine. This is a form of neurotransmitter. According to research by Valorie Salimpoor, he conducted an experiment on 8 music lovers by injecting a radioactive substance into their bodies, then listening to their favorite music. Using the PET machine used to scan neural reflexes showed that large amounts of dopamine were released. This means that listeners have happy, excited and joyful emotions.
Effective in relieving chronic pain
An Australian study found that regularly listening to music can help reduce chronic back pain. The research team tested 65 patients with back pain after surgery and divided them into two groups. One group received patients receiving traditional treatment. The other group was treated while listening to music every day for 25 minutes and lasted for 3 weeks.
As a result, the group that listened to the music reported less pain than the group that did not. Explaining this, experts say: When the music is played, blood pressure and heart beat slow down, helping to breathe more slowly, thereby reducing muscle tension in the neck, shoulders, stomach and back.
Reduce stress and improve health effectively
Listening to your favorite songs can also reduce stress hormones in the body, thereby helping the body to fight symptoms of prolonged stress. This is considered an important finding because stress accounts for 60% of all diseases. Another survey found that when people engaged in composing with musical instruments, their immune systems were boosted more strongly than when people just sat and listened.
Therefore, to relieve stress after a hard day's work, you can turn on the radio, sing along and shake your feet to each tune to eliminate as many diseases as possible.
Improve sleep
Taiwanese scientists said that just listening to music 45 minutes before going to bed, you will have a good night's sleep. The group of study participants were given music such as Jazz, Folk or symphony with an average music beat of 60-80 beats/minute and a group did not listen to music. The results of the study showed that 35% of people in the music group had better sleep quality.
Increase the ability to learn and remember
Jodi Picoult once said, “Music is the language of memory”. According to research results, music helps you learn and remember information better. However, the ability to remember depends on how passionate you are about music. Research results show that study participants are musicians who learn better with normal music genres and test results better when you listen to your favorite genre. Also, non-musicians often learn better when they listen to music.
Besides the above effects, music also has many other effects such as helping patients relax before and after surgery, reducing pain and improving memory in Alzheimer's patients. Music also has the ability to increase creativity in speech, help stroke patients recover, increase IQ as well as acting ability, keep the brain healthy..
With the above information, the article hopes to have brought useful sharing, helping you understand the concept of what music is as well as the effects of music on human health.
