Abstract
Considering the poor efficacy of drug treatment, the non-drug therapy is vital for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). As an ultimate form of Internet, Metaverse will become mainstream industry in the future. This thesis reviews advances in non-drug therapy (Reminiscence Therapy, Music Therapy, Horticultural Therapy, Animal-Assisted Therapy) of Alzheimer’s disease and introduce the Metaverse and its application in field of medicine. Finally, the author thinks Metaverse will be used to store human’s memories and proposed Metaverse Therapy for AD patients as one of the non-drug treatment in the future.
