Alzheimer’s Rehabilitation

Living with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia presents unique challenges—for both the individual and their loved ones. At Body Brokers, we provide specialised, compassionate, and structured rehabilitation support designed to enhance cognitive function, maintain independence, and improve overall quality of life. Our approach focuses on evidence-based exercise, routine-building, and meaningful engagement that supports both brain and body.

Understanding Alzheimer’s & Dementia

Dementia is an umbrella term for conditions that affect memory, communication, problem-solving, and behaviour. Alzheimer’s is the most common form, but every person’s experience is different. Symptoms may progress slowly or quickly, and the support each individual needs can vary widely.

Jessica Kreimeyer, our founder and Exercise Specialist, has extensive clinical experience working with clients living with Alzheimer’s and dementia. Her approach combines structured physical activity, cognitive engagement, routine-building, and emotional support to help clients remain active, confident, and connected.

Our Rehabilitation Approach

We create a personalised, 30-day continuous training programme designed to safely stimulate the mind and body. Each plan is built after a thorough assessment of cognitive function, daily abilities, mobility, and emotional needs.

Boosting Cognitive Health Through BDNF

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is a key protein that supports brain cell growth, communication, and resilience. Research shows that specific types of exercise can elevate BDNF levels, helping slow cognitive decline and improve mental clarity.

Our programmes may include:

  • Low-impact aerobic exercises
  • Light strength training
  • Movement patterns that challenge coordination
  • Gentle dual-task training that combines mind and movement

These elements help stimulate BDNF production and support cognitive health in a safe and controlled way.

Mobility & Functional Movement Training

Maintaining physical independence is essential for confidence and safety. Our Alzheimer’s rehabilitation includes carefully selected exercises to support daily function:

  • Balance and stability exercises
  • Gait training and fall-prevention drills
  • Joint-friendly mobility routines
  • Stretching and posture improvement

This work helps clients move safely, stay active, and reduce the risk of injury in day-to-day life.

Continuous Routine & Daily Structure

People with dementia often thrive with predictable routines. Jessica designs daily activity structures that support:

  • A sense of stability and comfort
  • Reduced confusion and anxiety
  • Improved sleep patterns
  • More engagement throughout the day

Clients receive a plan that can be followed at home or with support from caregivers, helping to maintain consistent progress.

Cognitive Engagement & Memory Support

To complement physical rehabilitation, sessions may include cognitive exercises such as:

  • Memory prompts and recall activities
  • Word and recognition tasks
  • Spatial awareness challenges
  • Guided conversation and sensory stimulation

These exercises are always adapted to the client’s cognitive stage and delivered gently and respectfully.

Emotional Well-Being & Confidence Building

Alzheimer’s affects emotions, communication, and relationships, not just memory. Jessica provides compassionate support to help clients:

  • Feel safe, heard, and understood
  • Reduce agitation and restlessness
  • Stay socially engaged where possible
  • Build confidence during daily tasks and activities

Family members and loved ones also benefit from knowing their relative is being supported in a calm, respectful environment.

Caregiver Education & Support

Families and caregivers play a vital role in daily life. We offer practical guidance to support them, including:

  • Strategies for clearer, calmer communication
  • Techniques to support mobility and reduce falls
  • Tips for managing daily routines and activities
  • Advice on creating a safe and calming home environment

This shared approach strengthens outcomes and promotes peace of mind for everyone involved.
