About this app

[1] Supporting Parkinson's disease patients' walking anytime, anywhere
In the case of gait disorders caused by Parkinson's disease, external sound rhythm stimulation can help normalize the disordered walking rhythm in the brain, and walking training that matches the sound rhythm has been shown to improve walking speed, such as faster walking speed.
In fact, when we created an original sound source with classical music, nursery rhymes, and other music set to a certain rhythm appropriate for walking, and trained people to walk along with it, we observed improvements in walking speed and stride length. Additionally, it has been proven that simply listening to music with a certain rhythm improves gait disorders by regulating the walking rhythm in the brain, and is also effective against depressive symptoms.
Based on this theoretical background, we have published CD books on music therapy for Parkinson's disease, and with this music app, you can listen to those sound sources anytime and anywhere on your smartphone.
[2] You can also use your favorite songs!
Due to copyright restrictions, a CD book on music therapy for Parkinson's disease could only use a limited number of songs, such as classical music and nursery rhymes.The major issue was that the number of songs was limited, and the book would get boring if listened to over and over again. .
Therefore, in addition to the sound sources included in the previous CD books, this app includes many new sound sources with a certain rhythm. You can also use the songs you downloaded yourself. Regardless of the genre, you can freely adjust the tempo of your favorite songs to support your walking.
Additionally, studies conducted on the general public have shown that dopamine increases in the brain when listening to favorite songs. [Column] Why is it important to have music that matches the rhythm, not just the rhythm of a metronome?　
[3] Supporting various situations in the lives of ordinary people
In addition to Parkinson's disease patients, this music app can also support the general public in various daily situations. For example, it can be developed for the following uses.
・Housework and work go faster with light rhythmic music
- Manage your pace with jogging BGM
- For practicing dance or musical instruments (you can practice from a slow tempo)
- Great for brushing your child's teeth, practicing running races, etc.
・Listen to your favorite song at a slightly calmer tempo to relax.
