Memory and concentration
loss is a pervasive problem in
modern society. Increased
levels of stress and anxiety,
accompanied by declining
physical activity, have direct
negative impact on our
memory.
In Memory Clinic
in Brighton Beach, the
patients can check their
memory as well as receive
a comprehensive plan to
prevent cognitive decline.
Dr. Valentin Bragin, the
founder of the Stress Relief
and Memory Training
Center (currently Memory
Clinic at Brighton Beach),
has developed an innovative
treatment for people suffering
from dementia, based on
combined treatment that
includes physical activities,
sensory stimulation,
medications and vitamins.
The areas of expertise
include assessment of
cognitive functions and brain
reserves and a multifaceted
program (medication and
non pharmacological
interventions) for treatment
of dementia, which includes,
but is not limited to memory
training, gentle hands and
sounds exercises and other
sensory motor activities,
aimed to increase cerebral
blood flow and vitalize brain
cells. He feels strongly that
restoration of brain blood
flow is absolutely necessary
at any stage of dementia
to overcome chronic blood
starvation in the brain.
This helps medications and
nutrients to reach all places
in the brain and normalize
brain functions.
Dr. Bragin has regularly
published results of his work
and presented them at multiple
national and international
conferences since 2000s.
People, who undergo this
combined treatment, are able
to hold cognitive decline,
decrease caregiver burden
and improve quality of life for
6 years (Bragin et al., 2014).
Dr. Bragin has authored three
books, “How to Activate Your
Brain” (2005 in Russian, 2007
in English) and “Conquering
Depression in the Golden
Years” (2009).
His brain activation
program is based on his
previous experimental
research, related to acute
blood flow failure in different
organs in the body, including
the brain, and on basic
science data related to the
chronic shortage of the blood
in the brain in people with
dementia.
In his book “How to activate
your brain” (2007), Dr. Bragin
states that he can “always
zero in on the functions and
