Helping Alzheimer's and Dementia
Many people with Alzheimer's and Dementia have trouble sleeping, which can leave them exhausted during the day. Fatigue takes a toll on both patients and their caregivers. Indeed, irregular sleeping is a major reason why families move relatives with Alzheimer's into long-term care facilities. Bright light therapy is a promising treatment under investigation for people with Alzheimer's who struggle with sleep. An increasing amount of evidence shows that bright light therapy can reset the body clock in people suffering from Alzheimer's. Daily exposure to bright light therapy can even help dementia patients with sleep disorders sleep longer and spend more time in deep sleep. Studies have shown that there is a decrease in wandering for people with dementia throughout the night. As another added benefit, cognitive deterioration slowed with regular exposure to bright light, and symptoms of depression decreased. Please note that if bright light therapy sounds like something you or your loved one would benefit from, you should discuss it with your physician
