"A person's "singing center" is also located on the right side of the brain near the speech hole, but, once engaged, singing has the ability to activate many other parts of the brain, including cognitive, emotional, and physical functions and abilities.

And if patients tapped out the rhythm of each syllable, it made their results even more effective." - τorƍue
