NuevaCare Introduces MnemeTherapy® Approach to Care for Elderly Patients with Alzheimer’s, Stroke and Other Types of Neurodegenerative Conditions
San Mateo, CA (PRWEB) May 03, 2015 -- NuevaCare announced today that it will present its newest service, MnemeTherapy® at two upcoming area seminars. The first event will take place on Wednesday, May 6 during the PSA Annual Regional Stroke Conference to be held at The Magnolia of Millbrae. The second seminar will be offered on Wednesday, May 13 during the Dementia Conference to be held at the Foster City Crowne Plaza.
“These seminars offer an excellent opportunity to learn about the MnemeTherapy® approach and the exciting possibilities it offers patients,” said Kenia Jacobo, Director of Marketing at NuevaCare.
Considered a breakthrough for those with memory conditions, MnemeTherapy® is a type of experience that teaches a highly specific method of painting to positively impact patients’ conditions. It is based on the principles of Neuroplasticity - the brain’s ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections through new experiences. Certified MnemeTherapy® artists provide guidance to patients, using everyday pleasures such as singing, movement, painting and storytelling in a unique combination to stimulate dramatic changes in the brain. Documented testimonies show significant improvement in some clients’ verbal skills, mobility, combativeness, and spatial acuity.
MnemeTherapy® has been used successfully for nearly two decades with individuals with all types of dementia: Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, Stroke Victims, MCI, Pick's Disease, Lewy Body disease, and with younger children and adults with Asperger Syndrome, PDD, ADD, ADHD, Autism and Cerebral Palsy.
The programs will feature distinguished medical presentations, motivational speakers and Q & A sessions.
