In this video, music therapist and Berklee Online professor Suzanne Hanser describes how patients use music-assisted relaxation to manage chronic pain in their lives. Everyone encounters some physical pain at some point. Of course, each pain is distinctive and everyone's response to pain is unique—so is the music that will be most therapeutic. Some people require a distraction, others need music that elicits vivid images to take them far away from the pain. Sometimes, deeply comforting music from the relaxing or sleep-inducing playlists do the trick. Other times, moving or dancing to energizing music is the most successful strategy. Spiritual music may the best alternative for those who wish to focus on something more significant than the present painful moment, and put their pain in perspective.
