Abstract

This study aims to explore the impact of music therapy on children with aphasia. By clarifying the pathological mechanisms of childhood aphasia, applying clinical music therapy, and establishing personalized assessment systems and intervention strategies, 30 participants with consistent aphasia severity were divided into a control group and an experimental group. The control group received only conventional speech therapy alone, while the experimental group received adjunct music therapy. To evaluate the efficacy of music therapy for children with aphasia and its positive impact in daily life, the study used the CRRCAE rating scale was used to score both groups pre- and post-intervention. The results showed that the scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group, confirming the objective and effective nature of music therapy for children with aphasia. Furthermore, music therapy is not limited to treating children with aphasia; it has been validated through extensive clinical research and experimental data in multiple areas, including neurorehabilitation support, mental health intervention, and pain management. Future research should focus on strengthening evidence-based medicine studies to promote the widespread practice and application of music therapy in public health systems
