Parkinson’s disease affects the nervous system and can lead to changes in movement, including slower movement, reduced coordination, balance difficulties and muscular rigidity.
Research into frequency-based stimulation is exploring how specific frequencies may interact with neurological function, movement and motor control.
Clinical research has investigated controlled electromagnetic stimulation in people living with Parkinson’s disease. In one randomised clinical trial involving 97 people with Parkinson’s, daily transcranial pulsed frequency-based stimulation was investigated over eight weeks. The researchers reported improvements in aspects of mobility and activities of daily living, with a related analysis also reporting improvements in functional movement in certain participants. (PubMed)
Research into repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has also produced evidence of effects on Parkinson’s motor symptoms. A meta-analysis of 20 studies involving 470 people found an overall improvement in motor symptoms compared with sham stimulation, with the frequency and location of stimulation appearing to influence the response. (PubMed)
These findings are part of an emerging area of research into how carefully controlled frequency-based stimulation may interact with neurological function and movement.
AV Edge products with EF Technology are not treatments for Parkinson’s disease and have not been clinically tested as a treatment for Parkinson’s. Individual experiences may vary and anecdotal customer reports should not be interpreted as clinical evidence.
Important: AV Edge products are wellness products, not medical devices, and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent Parkinson’s disease or any other medical condition.
