Abstract

Therapeutic concert, a kind of music therapy was provided to patients with fibromyalgia syndrome, and its efficacy psychophysiologically was evaluated by power spectral analysis of heart rate variability (HRV). The catharsis took place in 4 of 6 cases that were treated by the therapy and reduced pain. The observations indicate that catharsis is an important factor for performing therapeutic concert in music therapy.
