Abstract

Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects motor skills and mobility. Despite the studies conducted to find the treatment of this disease continues, there is no definite treatment yet. Besides the treatment to control and slow down the disease, patients also need the support of different methods and psychosocial interventions. Music therapy, as one of these supportive interventions, has been found to have positive effects supported by current studies. Positive improvements are achieved in the general well-being of the patients with effects such as rhythm follow-up by active or receptive methods, affect and socialization created by the authorities. There are many studies in which music and rhythmic sounds are used to prevent loss of balance and, therefore, the risk of falling. Many studies investigating the effects of music therapy for Parkinson's patients have found that it has positive effects on improving the motor skills of patients, preventing balance disorders and the risk of falling, ensuring psychological well-being, and socializing many people with the same problems in studies that apply music therapy as a group. In this study, which compiles the general effects of music therapy in Parkinson's patients, the results of current studies will be shared.
