Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) has become a worldwide health issue due to its increasing prevalence but limited pharmacologic effects. Besides traditional pharmacologic interventions, non-pharmacologic interventions are also very important. Music therapy (MT) is a long-established therapy with good applicability to people with dementia. This article mainly studies the cognitive and psychological influences of music on AD patients, mainly in listening to music, singing and doing rhythmic exercise. The advancement of music therapy has brought new treatment options to people who suffer from Alzheimer's disease, which is a positive development for patients and their families, making it more likely that AD can be cured. This paper will reflect on the role and comparisons from previous research. In the research results, listening to music, singing, and doing rhythmic exercise all have varying degrees of relief and improvement in depression, cognitive impairment, anxiety, and fugue. This research is helpful for scholars to understand the effects the music therapy has on patients.
