Harps relieve pain

Thanks to the ability to reassure patients, the music and vibration amplitude of the harp has brought about "magic" in surgery. This legendary instrument also reduces heart rate and blood pressure, helping to effectively prevent heart disease.

The patient listened to the harp calm and less painful.

American scientists discovered that the amplitude of the harp impacted strongly on the central nervous system, causing patients to "forget" the pain and need less anesthesia. A number of private hospitals and nursing centers in the UK have invited harpists to participate in surgeries and treatment for patients.

"The harp is a medicine. It works quite differently from other instruments," said Bethan Hughes, the harpist who started playing at the age of 10, saying , "The piano changes brain waves, reduces heart rate. and increasing the amount of oxygen in the blood, after 10 minutes of listening to music, the patient's blood pressure can change ".

Dr Abraham Kocheril, who led the research at Carle Heart Center, said: "The harp seems to affect the part of the brain that regulates the heart's activity. It helps patients relax effectively." In the future, some hospitals in the US may add harps to chemotherapy and radiation to help reduce unnecessary painkillers.
