Objectives: This study was performed to report the effect of music-listening intervention and relaxation for somatoform disorder.
Methods: A 51 year-old female patient suffered from several somatic symptoms without identifiable physical cause. We saw her symptoms were related to her psychological factors. We applied music-listening intervention and relaxation besides Korean traditional medical treatment to make her be aware of her psychological condition such as inner conflict and know symptoms are related to her psychological condition.
Results: After the music-listening intervention and relaxation, the patient revealed her unrecognized hidden feelings and emotions and got some insights about herself. Then somatic symptoms such as dysesthesia and urinary frequency and anxiety were decreased considerably.
Conclusions: These results suggest that the music-listening intervention and relaxation can be effective on improvement of somatoform disorder.
