The Experience

For four months, Vaira has been implemented at the AFAGA Alzheimer Vigo association as part of a study approved by the Pontevedra-Vigo-Ourense Research Ethics Committee. This collaboration has allowed us to evaluate the impact of our two main branches—cognitive stimulation and reminiscence—on people with mild and moderate cognitive impairment.

The study is currently in the results analysis phase. However, preliminary data already show very encouraging signs:

  • High acceptance by participants

  • Good adherence to scheduled sessions

  • Promising results in terms of well-being and mental activation

Cognitive Stimulation

Vaira’s cognitive branch, based on interactive virtual reality games, has been well received by users, who have shown interest, active participation, and improvements in key areas such as attention, memory, and coordination.

Reminiscence

The experience with the reminiscence branch has been especially moving. Through virtual environments that evoke memories from the past, thoughts and emotions that seemed inaccessible have been unlocked. Many users have been able to reconnect with significant moments in their lives, generating a positive impact on their emotional and social well-being.

This study represents an important step in the scientific validation of Vaira as a therapeutic tool and reinforces our commitment to innovation in the care and quality of life of older adults.
