»Even after 3.5 years, his condition is better than when he was diagnosed.«
Peter and Heidi H. have spent almost their entire lives side by side. Since they were 17 and 19 years old, they have been an inseparable team. Peter, a qualified engineer with an impressive career, has travelled the world, particularly Japan, where precision and care formed the focus of his work. Yet at 83 years of age, his life changed abruptly, because Peter received a devastating diagnosis: Alzheimer’s disease.
The difficult journey
The disease progressed rapidly. Peter became restless, increasingly burst into tears, was depressed and lacked concentration. The once well-travelled man became nervous, introverted and plagued with dark thoughts. The situation became unbearable for the family, particularly because Peter had to go into hospital during the Covid pandemic and visiting him was not permitted. Following his discharge, the neurologists recommended a balanced diet and exercise, but the symptoms continued to worsen.
Heidi’s unshakeable hope
For Heidi, this was not an option. She could not and would not give up her beloved Peter. Determined to find a solution, she came across Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS) during her research. What was it? Heidi did not know much about it, but her determination drove her to find out more. She arranged a consultation with a doctor offering this therapy in Neuss, Germany, in order to find out more.
A brave step
Despite fierce scepticism and criticism from those around them, Heidi and Peter decided to try TPS therapy. After just one session, Peter sensed improvements. During the course of the six treatments, they continued: Peter became animated, cheerful and interested in activities once more. The dark thoughts that had tormented him before disappeared. And there were no side effects.
Current findings and progress
Over two years after starting the TPS treatment, Peter is continuing to show stable cognitive performance. During the examination in May 2024, including the Stroop Colour-Word Interference test (CWIT), the attending doctor summarised as follows: »Overall stable findings, continuously improving test results compared with the period prior to the TPS treatment two years ago (02/2022) and also practically free of errors«.
Family and progress
Even the initially sceptical family eventually recognised the progress made and supported the therapy, albeit with a certain reluctance. Peter is now receiving a refresher session every 4 to 6 weeks, after each of which he experiences positive effects again.
A new life
Heidi confirms that Peter’s condition has also improved compared with how it was 3.5 years ago when he was diagnosed. Now they are looking forward to a holiday that would have been inconceivable before: a Rhine river cruise from Delft to Strasbourg.
