The Mozart effect combined with specific kinetic treatment in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Introduction & objectives: Although controversial, the Mozart effect, consisting of an improvement in cognitive abilities in healthy persons, has started to be studied in the case of patients with various neurological, even neurodegenerative diseases (dementia, treatment-refractory epilepsy)....

Introduction & objectives: Although controversial, the Mozart effect, consisting of an improvement in cognitive
abilities in healthy persons, has started to be studied in the case of patients with various neurological, even
neurodegenerative diseases (dementia, treatment-refractory epilepsy). There are few data on the Mozart effect in
Parkinson’s disease, but the positive results reported for other neurological pathologies have led us to study this
subject. The aim of this study is to compare the results of the Mozart effect associated with specific kinetic treatment
in the rehabilitation of Parkinson’s disease and the effect of standard kinesiotherapy, results reflected in the impact on
the degree of disability, emotional state and quality of life.
Material and method: This was a prospective case-control study, comprising patients with Parkinson’s disease,
Hoehn & Yahr stages I-III, included in a motor neurorehabilitation program through the project “The power of hope
for patients with Parkinson’s disease” Cluj-Napoca. The patients were assigned to two groups, a control group with
specific physiotherapy and the other group receiving the same specific kinetic treatment associated with the Mozart
effect, for 2 hours daily, over 14 consecutive days. The patients were assessed using the Schwab & England scale (for
the degree of dependence) and the PHQ-9 scale (for depression) before and after therapy.
Results: After 2 weeks of therapy, the patients in the study group had much more obvious, statistically significant
improvements in both scores.
Conclusions: Mozart’s music, as an adjuvant intervention to specific kinetic treatment in patients with Parkinson’s
disease, had a beneficial effect, ameliorating the degree of disability and emotional status |
