title: Music's unspoken messages.
abstract: Today, integrative medicine encompasses many healing arts therapies, including music. The universal language of music is simple, yet often forgotten, and communicates unspoken messages. The healing power of music in the health care setting creates a healing environment, distracts from pain, relaxes and de-stresses, and helps with sleep.
