Acupuncture is very helpful for reducing anxiety and depression associated with Alzheimer’s. Changes in mood were substantiated by multiple measures and were both statistically and clinically significant. The patients also benefited from increased energy and relief of pain from other age related conditions. It is not clear that acupuncture helped improve memory or intellectual function. But it is very encouraging that cognitive functioning appeared to remain stable over the months of the study. Several subjects whose mood improved the most also improved cognitively. Normally progressive cognitive losses are characteristic of the disease.

Acupuncture appears to be very helpful in relieving anxiety, improving mood, increasing energy, improving some aspects of well-being, and decreasing mood related behaviors. There were no negative side effects of acupuncture treatment. Most subjects expressed some level of enjoyment or satisfaction with the treatment, and none dropped out of the study. The high level of patient satisfaction and compliance indicate acupuncture treatment is quite feasible for patients with dementia.
