Summary
This study tests a wearable device that delivers gentle vibrations to the skin to improve motor function in people with Parkinson's disease. The treatment can be used alongside regular medication and aims to delay the need for higher doses. Thirty participants with moderate-stage Parkinson's will use the device at home for two months, and researchers will measure changes in movement and quality of life.
