According to WHO research, depression is a prevalent mental health problem affecting over 300 million individuals worldwide. Prolonged depression has also been a significant source of disability around the globe. Furthermore, severe depression has been linked to suicide, making it the main cause of death for over 800,000 individuals each year. Abbott &amp; Lavretsky (2013) state that people with depression are sometimes reluctant to seek medical help because of a lack of resources and social stigma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is music therapy?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The World Federation of Music defines music therapy as the use of music and its elements by to improve health and well-being (Zhao et al., 2016). Music therapy may be defined as a competent therapist&#8217;s clinical and evidence-based use of music or its components to accomplish personalized goals during therapeutic engagement with a client or group of clients (Aalbers et al., 2017).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Music therapy may be defined as a competent therapist&#8217;s clinical and evidence-based use of music or its components to accomplish personalized goals during therapeutic engagement with a client or group of clients (Aalbers et al., 2017). Music helps people communicate and express their feelings in various ways from a psychological perspective (Braun &amp; Clarke 2020).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"607\" src=\"https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/11\/737_2022_Music-therapy-a-non-medical-treatment-for-depression-1024x607.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10795\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/11\/737_2022_Music-therapy-a-non-medical-treatment-for-depression-1024x607.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/11\/737_2022_Music-therapy-a-non-medical-treatment-for-depression-300x178.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/11\/737_2022_Music-therapy-a-non-medical-treatment-for-depression-768x455.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/11\/737_2022_Music-therapy-a-non-medical-treatment-for-depression-570x338.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/11\/737_2022_Music-therapy-a-non-medical-treatment-for-depression.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image 1. Music has a wide range of neurochemical effects on human being. (Metri 2017)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Effective in rehabilitation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Music is an effective tool for rehabilitation because it stimulates physical and cognitive activity on several levels (Raglio et al., 2014). Music therapy has been more popular as an alternative treatment for mental illness because of its cheap cost, ease of tolerance, excellent compliance, and few adverse effects (Zhao et al., 2016). There are several ways in which music may help people recover physically and cognitively after injury (Raglio et al., 2014). Music&#8217;s neurochemical effects affect the reward and pleasure circuits, stress and arousal, and the immune system. Because of its low cost, ease of tolerance, great compliance, and lack of side effects, music therapy has grown into popular as an alternative treatment for mental illness. (Zhao et al., 2016).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Okoro (2022) music is an effective treatment intervention for patients with anxiety and depressive disorders. However, there is limited research supporting the implementation of music as a treatment option. The study finding also recommends incorporating music in connection to other pharmacological treatments to enhance patient outcomes. Further research should therefore focus on validating the current research finding by conducting evidence-based research using mixed-method research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-background\" style=\"background-color:#b3edfb\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p>Authors<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Vera Okoro<\/strong> is a graduating student at LAB University of Applied Sciences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Irina Tiainen<\/strong> works as a Senior Lecturer at LAB University of Applied Sciences.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">References<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Aalbers, S., Fusar-Poli, L., Freeman, R.
