LISTENING to music lowers blood pressure and heart rate, according to a study from Hiroshima University Hospital in Japan.

This found that people at risk of high blood pressure who listened to relaxing piano and flute music for 30 minutes a day, five days a week, for a month, had a significant drop in heart rate. Higher blood pressure is associated with cardiovascular damage.

The music therapy is thought to increase levels of dopamine and slow down brain activity, leading to changes in mood, anxiety and stress levels.

Writing in the Journal of Clinical Hypertension, the researchers said this might be an option for preventing high blood pressure.
