Music therapy through a digital drip

Have you ever felt better after listening to a piece of music?

One of the challenges they’ve found when bringing it front of investors has been “getting over the misconception” that music is just art. However, the reality is “it’s a combination of various sciences and physics and maths. Neurology, sociology, physiology, and psychology. And those six sciences make up how we listen and consume music and explain the effect it has on us.”

Of course, we all implicitly know that music has a positive effect on us. It’s why we feel good when we listen to our favourite songs. But this science means it could be used in a clinical setting.

MediMusic’s app administers specially curated music as a ‘digital drip’ which “increases vagal tone and heart rate variability, positive hormones such as oxytocin, smooths the breathing and at the same time reduces cortisol which is detrimental to all of us in creating stress.”
