The SENSE-GARDEN aims at creating awareness in persons with dementia by providing stimuli to the different senses, such as sight, touch, hearing, balance and smell, and ultimately leading to a re-connection with the reality around. The SENSE GARDEN technology is normally installed in care facilities. The SENSE-GARDEN therapy focuses on emotionally rich past memories aiming at improving cognitive function. The sessions in the SENSE GARDEN are personalised to each individual person.
