Mental health issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma-related disorders have become a global concern, affecting individuals across all demographics. The World Health Organization (WHO) has reported that mental health disorders contribute significantly to the global burden of disease, leading to reduced quality of life, impaired functioning, and increased economic costs. Traditional therapeutic interventions, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), talk therapy, and medication, have been widely used to address mental health concerns.

By combining these two elements, Laughter Percussion Therapy creates a unique, dynamic, and immersive experience that fosters mental resilience, emotional regulation, and social connection.
