Dementia Intervention Options
Read up on our dementia treatment guidelines and see how HappyNeuron Pro’s
dementia therapy can help your patients.
Dementia describes a range of cognitive symptoms that affect daily living. Dementia is commonly associated with the elderly, as memory and other thinking skills start to decline in old age or after a brain injury. Depending on the severity of dementia, some symptoms may be improved. With the right non-pharmaceutical therapy, you can help your patient “re-wire” their brain to help them compensate in daily life.
Studies by the National Institute on Aging at the NIH found that: “When studied by electroencephalography (EEG, which monitors patterns of brain electrical activity), a group of older participants who had trained in multitasking also showed increased levels of brain activity, indicative of improved cognition. Compared with their peers, the training group performed better on attention and memory tests. These results suggest that, in the laboratory, targeted brain training can improve certain cognitive abilities known to decline with age.”
