Music Therapy on Nausea and Pain for Autologous Stem Cell

Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is an important therapy for patients with multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin\'s lymphoma, and Hodgkin\'s lymphoma. It has been shown to improve progression free survival and overall survival. However, it is a challenging treatment process both physically and psychologically. It is a procedure with many side effects that can be uncomfortable, painful, and at times, difficult to endure. Complementary therapies, such as music therapy, have potential to be an important adjunct in palliation of symptoms in patients undergoing chemotherapy.
