What You Need To Know About Lewy Body Dementia

Alternative Treatments

One of the best ways to treat Lewy body dementia is to relax the patient. Anxiety and frustration can make symptoms worse. Music therapy or listening to soothing music may also be helpful. Other relaxing treatments include pet therapy or using animals to improve mood and behaviours, massage therapy, and aromatherapy. Lavender essential oil has been shown to help promote relaxation. It can be diffused into a patient’s room or used in the form of relaxing salt baths to help ease the mind.
