of the 25 patients examined 20 reported attacks of dizziness. After treatment
14 patients were free from attacks of dizziness and 6 reported a significant

- Reduction
of anxiety in older people and people of middle-age after the relaxing musical
preparation there was a 4-unit reduction in anxiety and after the activating
musical preparations a reduction of 6 units

while hearing the music, many experienced e.g. a wood, a
lake, flowing water, sunlight and had many
other positive experiences
- Dispersion
of psycho-physiological manifestations of stress in older people and people
