Snoezelen and reminiscence therapy show promise for senior emotional health

This study looked at whether two types of activities—Snoezelen (a relaxing, sensory experience) and reminiscence therapy (talking about past memories)—can help seniors feel less anxious and improve their emotional state. Researchers worked with 55 older adults living in care facilities in Slovakia. Participants either took part in one of these activities or were in a group that did not receive any extra activity. The goal was to see if these approaches could make a real difference in how seniors feel day-to-day.
