Summary
This study tested a wrist-worn device that uses gentle vibrations to reduce hand tremors in people with essential tremor. 71 participants used the device on demand. Researchers measured how comfortable it was and if it helped with daily tasks like using a spoon or pouring milk. The goal is to provide a drug-free option for tremor control.
