Tourism helps treat dementia

Scientists have come to the conclusion that new experiences that a person receives while traveling have a positive effect on brain function. This provides cognitive and sensory stimulation, and the need to adapt to new conditions while traveling makes the brain work harder. Tourism also involves a lot of movement, which is also useful for various diseases - physical activity is directly related to mental well-being. The authors of a new study propose to rethink the role of travel in medical practice and treat it not just as entertainment, but as therapy.
