Abstract

Extensive research is ongoing in the use of photobiomodulation (PBM, often referred to as low level laser therapy) to treat Alzheimer's disease or dementia. The following case studies further confirm that PBM could be a breakthrough approach to limit the progression of this insidious disease. We present four cases, two with mild to moderate dementia and two with more advanced symptoms. Several publications have shown beneficial results, however, several weeks of daily treatments were necessary. The cases described here suggest that moderate or advanced dementia cases can be significantly improved with three or four eight-minute treatments over a 5- 7-day period (MWF).
光生物调节治疗中晚期痴呆或阿尔茨海默病的疗效:案例研究
广泛的研究正在使用光生物调节(PBM,通常被称为低水平激光治疗)来治疗阿尔茨海默病或痴呆症。以下案例研究进一步证实,PBM可能是限制这种潜伏疾病进展的突破性方法。我们提出四个病例,两个轻度至中度痴呆和两个更先进的症状。一些出版物显示了有益的结果,然而,每天几周的治疗是必要的。本文所述的病例表明,中度或晚期痴呆病例可以在5- 7天的时间(MWF)内进行三次或四次8分钟的治疗。
