A study by Lee-Chen
Chen et al. [2013] has shown the positive effects of music therapy in
integrative oncology for the treatment of different symptoms, such as pain,
mood disturbances and communication issues. The use of music with slow tempos
(60-80 beats per minute) and low dynamics decreases trait anxiety levels and
systolic blood pressure in pre-radiotherapy settings.
