Music therapy offers a whole new range of methods to patients. It can help with almost any condition, so it is widely used. It is a newer form of therapy but dates back to the beginning of time. As the profession has grown, so has the curriculum that makes today's music therapist highly effective. With highly effective therapists, the success rate increases significantly. Although it is still growing, music therapy is very effective and can be applied in almost any way. Works Cited Bruscia, Kenneth E. “Music Therapy Program on Music Therapy.” Temple.edu.
