Integrative Therapeutic Music-Based Application For Alzheimer's Disease

Alzheimer's disease is a severe neurological disorder, with sub-optimal symptomatic pharmacological treatment. Various sound and music-based therapeutic interventions are currently being used as alternative solutions to alleviate symptoms and enhance the quality of life of those impacted. This paper presents the integration of these music-based therapeutical methods into a single, unitary software application specifically designed to supplement traditional music therapy sessions and be easily employed in real-life scenarios. The app is free, modular, customizable, and developed in a software environment capable of deploying on all major platforms, for the advantage of easy accessibility to therapy professionals, caregivers and patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease-related symptoms.
