Does anyone know about light and sound therapy for dementia or ALZ?

I read in the ALZ association along with brightfocus that they are doing research on light and sound therapy .. anyone know anything about this. Does it work for PPAOS in the prevention of progression ?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Brain & Nervous System Support Group.

I have read the material from the Picower Institute ( an MIT affiliate. They are researching 40 hz light and sound with a company called Cognitos Thearapeutics.
It seems promising, but still being researched.
As a result, we are using the AlzLife software on an iPad Pro( has to be a Pro to achieve true 40 hz light). Also have to use headphones to achieve 40 hz sound. Our feeling is that it is non invasive, so why not try it - nothing to lose! Hope this helps.
