A new study published in the journal Movement Disorders Clinical Practice reveals that group drumming improves the condition of those with Parkinson’s disease; a condition considered by conventional medicine to be irreversible and lethal.

Drumming has been an integral part of traditional healing rituals worldwide since time immemorial. In fact, in a previous article entitled “6 Evidence-Based Ways Drumming Heals Body, Mind, and Soul“, I explored the evolutionary roots of drumming behavior (percussive musicality) that goes back in time so far as to be found in other species, such as chimpanzees and even insects.

Recently, there has been renewed interest in drumming as a therapeutic intervention in a wide range of disease; a development, no doubt, related to the failure of conventional, drug-based therapies to decelerate in any meaningful way chronic diseases. But more specifically, drumming may be an ideal therapeutic modality for addressing psychospiritual and emotional issues that are impossible to treat chemically; and by “treat” I mean heal, and not simply suppress symptoms. Learn more by reading our recent report, “Group Drumming Better Than Prozac, Study Suggest.”
