Holistic Approach to Dementia and Alzheimers
Barely a day goes by without dementia being in the news, with alarming figures on the prevelance of the diseases such as Alzheimer's causing dementia and the difficulties of living with dementia for sufferers and their carers.
Taking a holistic approach to dementia
Whilst a diagnosis may initially feel like the end of the world there are many approaches which can bring benefits and we thought it would be helpful to build a blog around this.
For that reason we will over the next few months be adding further information to this blog as our different therapists and friends share their experiences with us
Noella Grace who runs a Jazz Dance Stretch and Tone Class here at the Beehive has experienced the benefits of music and dance when enriching the lives of people with dementia.
Take a look at her blog
There is also a blog by Sandra Leyland Williams on
the use of aromatherapy to aid relief for Dementia and Alzheimer’s
and the benefits of massage and touch both for those with dementia and their carers
