I am a 75 year old male who was diagnosed with PD in November 2022. I am treating the condition with medication and have recently completed a course in BIG therapy. I have also purchased two red light therapy devices. I would be interested in hearing from others who have used red light therapy to treat PD.

I put the contraption on twice/day, but cannot say it does anything for me.
You should join some of the Zoom calls MBAnderson is kind enough to host. You will meet plenty of people that use red lights and many other protocols:

Hi Mike, I have been using a red light helmet 670 and 810 mn for two years now and combined it with 1hr fast walking 3x weekly plus supplements and have noticed slight improvement physically, but not memory wise. I hope it's not my imagination as I have recently bought a second helmet. Good luck
My husband has benefited by using a red light hat. If you press on my picture I have described and put up many posts about it. I notice when we ve been on holiday and he hasn’t taken it with him. It definitely makes a difference. He’s had it for a few years now.
I've been using this helmet for about 6 months, and have not noticed a difference. However, I'm going on a 2 week vacation without it and looking forward to seeing if I decline somewhat. They have 2 helmets. The more expensive one is 4 quadrant,1040nm, programmable with consultation for 3 months. There was a lot of confusion in my case in the type of EEG to get. I wasn't informed prior to paying for an EEG that it had to be a certain kind so I wasted about $300 on an EEG that couldn't be used. I wasn't about to pay for another one. So my consultant worked with me anyway based on symptoms and his knowledge of my condition. Ideally, you will want an EEG they can work with to program your helmet specific to your brain. neuronic.online/products/4-...

I want to add regarding my use of the neuronic helmet that it doesn't reach the back of the brain, the cerebellum which sits under the occipital lobes. I try to sit it further back on my head but the design of the helmet prevents it from going back any further. So i purchased another device from vielight that specifically targets the cerebellum. I'll use both helmets, the neuronic and the vielight x-plus 3, which also has a nasal vascular component. The vielight is only 880 nm, whereas the neuronic is 1070 nm.
I have balance issues and I'm partially blind in one eye. Hopefully between the two, I can cover the entire brain and see some improvement. Thus far, I have not noticed any improvement just using the neuronic. But, I'm also on B1 high dose therapy and Lithium, both of which I think contribute to my well being and ease of movement. vielight.com/devices/vielig...
I just read a study that the light helmet "Symbyx Neuro and also a handheld laser light Symbyx Duo showed improvement in 70% of patients. It was mentioned on symbyxbiome.com.
Is that the one you are using?
Any updates from any users of RLT?
I know some of you were unmoved but these things can take time I guess.
I have red light therapy for my feet and my head, and it has helped
