Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the five tones, namely horn, sign, palace, business and feather, correspond to the five elements (wood, fire, earth, gold and water) and are connected with the five internal organs and five emotions. Such as Gongqu, melodious and quiet, sincere and solemn, as generous and firm as "earth", can enter the spleen; Shang-Diao music is high-pitched, solemn and stirring, majestic, with the characteristics of "gold" and can enter the lungs; Horn music is full of vigor and vitality, has the characteristics of "wood" and can enter the liver; Need to tune music, warm, cheerful, lively and relaxed, with the characteristics of "fire", popular; Feathering music is sad, desolate and soft, like flowing water, with the characteristics of "water" and can enter the kidney. Chinese medicine's "Five Tones for Prevention of Disease" is to choose music according to the characteristics of five musical modes and the relationship between five zang-organs and five elements, so as to reconcile emotions, regulate viscera, balance yin and yang, and achieve the purpose of maintaining the dynamic balance of qi and safeguarding human health.
