Therapeutic Benefits of Playing Piano
Playing or learning piano is a common intervention that can be used in music therapy to address a variety of non-musical goals πΉ One of the most amazing things about music therapy is the ability to use music as a tool to improve our overall health and well-being. Our goals in music therapy are focused on physical, social, psychological, and cognitive health. Although the goal of music therapy is not necessary to become a better musician, music therapists can incorporate piano or other instruments within sessions as means of achieving health-centered goals.
