This paper indicates that drumming accelerates physical healing, boost the immune system, and produces feelings of well-being through the release of emotional trauma. Holistic drumming approaches have been proven to be very successful in helping people with major medical issues. The initial investigations of 3 studies evaluated the methods of Drum Therapy in order to examine the effects of Drum Therapy on development of coordination,
retention, social skills, and physical and cognitive functioning. Dyslexic individuals may also find improvisation difficult, especially when learning an instrument like the drums. For this reason, the Specific Isolated Instruction teaching method is so important. The results of this study concluded that Drum Therapy helps participants to learn problem-solving strategies, improve patience and perseverance, to develop coordination and retention.
