Clinical Trial Summary

This is a cohort study where subjects will receive either massage therapy or music therapy interventions to evaluate their impact on hospice patients.


Clinical Trial Description

There is growing evidence that integrative therapies such as massage therapy and music therapy can be effective therapeutic tools for relief of pain and non-pain symptoms in hospice and palliative care patients. Massage and music therapies can provide comfort, relaxation, and improve quality of life for patients. The investigator's primary aim is to compare the effects of massage and music therapies on the quality of life of hospice patients. The overall goal is to further improve pain, depression, anxiety, and poor well-being or quality of life in hospice patients through the use of integrative therapies, specifically massage and music therapies, as add-on to standard hospice clinical care. Patients will be assigned to either the massage therapy or music therapy cohort. Questionnaires will be utilized before and after each massage or music therapy intervention to quantify symptom and quality of life levels. ;
