Abstract

"Music Therapy" is an emerging interdisciplinary subject based on social development, which has merged together with psychology, medicine, neuroscience and musicology. Music therapy abandons the traditional diagnostic model, which only focuses on patients’ pathological changes. It simultaneously heals patients’ body and mind, hence to achieve a better therapeutic effect. Music therapy has analgesic effect, which has been clinically applied to puerperia and used to divert puerperia’s attention from pain during labor. Applying music therapy during pregnancy to relieve tension and prevent negative emotions that may cause harmful effect to pregnant woman and the fetus.
