Alzheimer's Therapy in Banbury

While the physical changes to the brain inherent in the process of Alzheimer's developing are currently irreversible and incurable, their life limiting affects may, in some cases, be alleviated to some degree in the context of improving the quality of life of the person living with Alzheimer's condition. The emotional wellbeing of the individual's family support group may also benefit from the use of therapy in easing their understandable feelings of frustration, anger, guilt and grief. Supporting a loved one suffering from a condition such as Alzheimer's has often been described as "mourning the living" and much can be done to alleviate this stress on the family support group.

Improving the Quality of Life.

Recent research has shown that hypno-psychotherapy can be effective in improving the quality of life for Alzheimer patients in seven main areas:

Concentration on daily tasks.
Relaxation, thus reducing anxiety which is a common feature.
Motivation, thus tending to avoid depressive conditions.
Undertaking daily activities and keeping active. Immediate memory retention.
Memory for significant life events.
Socialisation thereby avoiding the tendency for self-isolation.

Further research was conducted a year later to measure the longevity and continuing efficacy of the original therapy and it was found that in all cases the effects were still present and in some cases had continued to improve without further therapeutic intervention.
