Qingcheng Du

An increasing number of inexpensive and safe interventions, such as music therapy, dance therapy, yoga, massage therapy, storytelling and Tai Chi Chuan are utilized to treat dementia. A large number of clinical trials indicate that these inexpensive interventions show benefits in the treatment of dementia. Due to current evidence, these inexpensive and safe interventions will become a promising therapy for the treatment of dementia. In present, no published reviews summarize the effect of inexpensive and safe interventions in the treatment of dementia. The aim of this study is to provide a review of the scientific evidence on the effect of inexpensive and safe interventions in patients with dementia.
