Summary
This early study tests whether a device that gently stimulates a nerve in the ear (taVNS) can be used safely at home to help with Parkinson's symptoms like walking and balance problems. Sixteen adults with Parkinson's will use the device for one hour each day over eight weeks. Researchers will track how well people stick with the routine, any side effects, and changes in movement and brain scans.
