Artistic practices at the service of therapy
According to the American Alzheimer's Foundation, music helps to improve memory and helps to remember things long enough: "Most people associate music with important, significant events and a wide range of emotions. The connection is so strong that even years later, hearing music can bring out the memories of that moment. " However, if traditional medicine has not yet found a miracle cure, digital therapy solutions such as therapeutic serious games or the ReMind project help the patient in his daily struggle.
