Cognitive Rehabilitation Cognitive rehabilitation is a relatively new concept for the prevention and treatment of dementia. There are now several centers which utilize complementary and alternative therapies to help as well. The basic idea is to exercise the mind. Some clever software (e.g. Brain Age) for the Nintendo device has been developed which can be used at home, and which I personally use to demonstrate the concept in the office (and for fun). There are also some emerging computer based and web based products available. Other exercises to "exercise" the brain can include learning new things, like a foreign language, and doing puzzles. |
