Audio Analgesic

Here's yet another study on the power of music to effectively reduce pain. More and more medical studies are concluding that sound and music act as an 'audio analgesic'.

A study published in the Journal of Advanced Nursing involved 60 patients with chronic, non-cancer pain. Those who listened to music on headphones for an hour a day reported significantly less pain and depression and an increased sense of control.

This confirms my philosophy that music, sound and the power of the human voice act on a core biological level that bypasses our analytical, thinking brain.
