Story
Activity directors at assisted living communities and occupational therapists have long known the benefits of using music for dementia therapy – it can help to engage, manage stress, soothe and uplift the moods of those suffering from Alzheimer’s and memory impairment. In his 2007 book “Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain,” the famed neurologist and author Oliver Sacks wrote, “People with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias can respond to music when nothing else reaches them. Alzheimer’s can totally destroy the ability to remember family members or events from one’s own life—but musical memory somehow survives the ravages of disease, and even in people with advanced dementia, music can often reawaken personal memories and associations that are otherwise lost.”
