Sounds like a job for the Beck's Brain tuner to me...

Brain stimulation improves memory in Alzheimer's
By Will Boggs, MD
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Electrical stimulation of the brain may improve memory and recognition in elderly people who suffer from Alzheimer's disease, results of a study hint.
"Our preliminary data on Alzheimer's disease patients are promising as we observed beneficial effects after a single session of transcranial direct current stimulation," Dr. Alberto Priori from the University of Milan told Reuters Health, "suggesting that chronic daily application might induce even greater improvement."
"Our studies encourage broader research programs using different stimulation protocols and longer clinical follow-up to clarify the impact this therapy might have on patients' daily functional activities," Priori added.
Priori and colleagues investigated whether electrical stimulation applied over an area at the side of the brain called the temporoparietal cortex could improve recognition memory in 10 patients with Alzheimer's disease.
The treatment significantly improved word recognition memory accuracy, they found report, whereas sham treatment had no impact on memory. The results were similar after correcting memory performance for guessing, the report indicates.
"Interestingly," the investigators say, the electrical stimulation-induced improvement in the word recognition test in patients with Alzheimer's disease is comparable to the 16 percent improvement induced by long-term treatment with cholinesterase inhibitors - drugs currently used to treat early memory problems in patients with dementia.
"We are assessing possible long-lasting effects of (electrical stimulation) in Alzheimer's disease patients using repeated session protocols in a larger sample with longer clinical follow-up," Priori said.
"We believe that the best results, especially in Alzheimer's disease patients, could be obtained by combining transcranial direct current stimulation with cognitive rehabilitation," Priori added.

This is a reply to # 1,243,651From the link - interesting anectdote, answered two of my questions after reading from your paste alone.
>>There are several mechanisms that may be at at work here. They may be affecting pathogens, stimulating the elimination of toxins (particularly metals), stimulating brain cell function, or a combination of all of the above. They don't provide the frequencies in the press release so there is not enough data to show what they were really doing.
Eg.:
- might be stimulating the elimination of pathogens and toxins
- lack of info re: frequency provided
I also wonder what they used - what instrument and what technique. Nice find. I'd love see/locate a diagram such as that on the site but which details all areas of the brain and respective functions.-

This is a reply to # 1,244,041Trying to wrap my head around the "how" of it all. Stimulating is one thing, detoxing (removing) another. Maybe this lends itself, in theory, to V's enlightenments/offerings regarding electro-positve vs. electro-negative metals, periodic table, etc. Hmm. Everything has a frequency, right? Double hmmm.
Once I solve this one I move on to Saving the Children, The War in Iraq, Energy Crisis, Outsourcing of America, and World Peace.
Speaking of W/P. Check out her claim that peace on earth begins in the uterus. Bless her little heart.

This is a reply to # 1,244,041Hi,
I have been doing research on brain stimulation because I had a series of 10 ECT (electro-convulsive therapy)back in August for Depression bordering on psychosis. ECT is a controlled siezure. It was the only thing that brought me out of the depression. I am falling very swiftly back in to the same place. The doctors say that ECT "resets" the brain.
I found this video that explains (speculates) what happens during a seizure. the doctor in this video says that it is the bodies way of shutting down to protect itself and allow for a brain detox. Go to Youtube and look for the lecture on the Gap Diet. It is over an hour long. At about 56 minutes she talks about the effects of seizures.
I also read on Klinghardt's site about electro current detoxes brain of metals:"Metals can also be mobilized by applying electric fields to the brain (Electro-Bloc) and by the use of targeted psychotherapy" (APN)
I have personally tried to get to the emotional core of my illness but I need to be jump started out of this Depression to even think about looking at it. I think. I think too much. The emotional core is "there is something wrong with me".
I have found two different devices that deliver electric current to the brain: the Fisher Wallace and the Alpha Stim. Neither company speaks of their devices being a form of deetox equipment. they say it stimulates the production of serotonin and more. I am sure I have plenty of serotonin.

This is a reply to # 1,243,651In my practice of Total Biology based on Dr. Ryke Hamer's and Dr. Claude Sabbah discoveries, Alzheimer's is caused by a chronic long term cycles of separation conflict and resolution. For example: an elderly person is overwhelmed by loneliness, then one of the kids come to visit, he feels better. The son or daughter leaves and the loneliness returns. Every time this cycle occurs it leaves a small scar in the brain. Too many scars = memory loss. So in treatment we address the separation conflict and we can stop the progress of the disease, but not improve it.
Perhaps the brain tuner opens up new brain pathways, which can explain the above noted improvement.
The biggest problem I face is the overwhelming cultural, ingrained, unquestioned belief, is that all disease has a physical cause. Researchers spend their lives scrutinizing every chemical, and inventing new ones. Yet the incidence diseases continue to grow because our culture is degenerating and they are all looking in the wrong places. Aside from diet, all disease begins from some sort of emotional conflict or trauma.
I'm writing from experience, I have helped patients go into "spontaneous remission" from cancer, diabetes, arthritis, allergies, liver diseases, migraines, lung diseases, gall stones, hypertension, and many others. I don't use herbs, needles, drugs, or special diets. I simply talk with the patient and help them resolve the conflict along with EFT or TAT. If the conflict can be discovered the patient will heal. I use the Beck SP5 to help control the infections that occur in the healing stages of conflict resolution.
There is a Dr. Hamer (New German Medicine) forum on this site and sadly there have been no posts in 4 years. The most important discoveries since Pasture are being ignored. That's how ingrained and stubborn our cultural beliefs are in the prevention of new discoveries and principle.
Emotions buried alive never die.

This is a reply to # 1,245,210very itneresting stuff. i am dissapointed to see so few practitioners. i live in the US and could see only one chiropractor and one psychologist who uses these principals and none are near me. well, interesting anyway.
have you read any of bernie siegels books? i see much of the same type of research and findings in siegel's book 'love medicine and miracles' as Hamer has discovered. the idea of emotional traumas leading directly to physical illnesses plays a big part in siegels theories. i highly recommend him.- Re: Brain stimulation improves memor... charkee
