| Research Abstract |
This time, vibroacoustic therapy (using a type that can be mounted on the extremities) was conducted for 30 minutes a day over a total of 10 days, on 10 subjects consisting of nursing home residents in whom symptoms of Parkinson's disease have emerged, as well as nursing home residents in whom the disturbance of attention that is characteristic of Parkinson's disease has appeared prominently.The result was that significant reductions in systolic blood pressure, significant improvements in the DBD scale for evaluation of dementia problem behavior, and significant improvements in the DMAS scale for evaluation of depression in dementia patients could be seen, but no improvements could be seen in cognitive functions.
With regards to "wearing-off", it appears that in research using neuron model cells(PC12m3 cells), the improvement effects of wearing-off are higher with rhythm therapy than with vibroacoustic therapy.
