Music Therapy as Non-Pharmacological Treatment in Alzheimer’s Disease—Effects on Memory—Systematic Review

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurocognitive disorder characterized by gradual onset and gradual progression, presenting a wide range of symptoms, with one of its main features being episodic memory impairment, present from the early stages of the disease. Currently, there is no cure for AD, so a mu...
