About Marama

Marama is a Memory Care facility located in San Diego, CA, dedicated to providing a unique program for Memory Recovery. Led by Dr. Heather Sandison, who trained under Dr. Dale Bredesen MD, Marama offers a comprehensive approach to potentially reverse Alzheimer's and related dementias. The facility implements Dr. Bredesen's protocol rigorously, with a focus on improving cognitive function for residents. Memory care at Marama is specialized for individuals experiencing memory loss, often due to Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia. The facility provides a structured environment with trained staff who understand the unique needs of individuals with memory impairment, offering services such as assistance with daily activities, medication management, and cognitive stimulation programs.

Marama's ultimate goal is to reverse dementia through evidence-based approaches and compassionate care. The facility is equipped with specialized programs and trained staff experienced in caring for people with dementia. Additionally, Marama welcomes couples and offers accommodations for them to stay together, recognizing the importance of maintaining relationships. Early intervention and appropriate treatment at Marama can help slow down the progression of dementia, potentially making a significant difference in managing the condition. Cognitive therapy is integrated into Marama's programs to support brain health and cognitive function in individuals with Alzheimer's and dementia.

Alzheimer's disease is considered a cognitive disability, affecting memory, thinking skills, and behavior. Individuals with Alzheimer's may experience difficulties with memory, language, decision-making, and daily tasks as the disease progresses. Marama follows Dr. Bredesen's "four pillars" approach, emphasizing a brain-healthy diet, physical and mental exercise, toxin management, and cognitive stimulation to provide the best care for individuals with Alzheimer's disease. Specialized memory care facilities like Marama can significantly improve the well-being and safety of individuals with dementia compared to general care settings, offering tailored programs and services to support cognitive function and potentially reverse dementia.
