Does listening to music reduce pain?

Haan na, it actually works! Whenever I have a bad headache, I just put on some old soft songs and lie down in a dark room. It won't cure severe medical pain of course, but it surely relaxes the brain and makes you feel much better.

I used to think my post-surgery pain would never go down without heavy pills and got so stressed. But then I started listening to lo-fi beats and light instrumental music daily. It really helped lower my anxiety, which made the physical pain feel much more manageable.

Yes, there is science behind it. My smart band actually shows my heart rate dropping and stress levels lowering when I play soothing ambient playlists during a migraine. It acts as a great cognitive distraction technique to lower your pain perception.

Hamare yahan jab bhi thoda thakan ya dard hota hai, toh radio chalakar thode purane geet sun lete hain. Man halka ho jata hai aur dard ka pata bhi nahi chalta. Aap bhi ek baar dhyan lagakar suniye, bahut aaram milega.
