May I ask - how have you found the PD Gloves ? What effects has it had on your PD ( pos and neg ) and any side effects ? How long do you use it per day and how long before you noticed any changes/effects ? Thanks.

I’ve used them faithfully 2 hours twice per day for a month . No noticeable effect. I’m nearly certain I m in placebo mode. I look forward to switching out the gloves July7

dear Manypony, I am curious: when they initially fitted the gloves for you, did they do some kind of testing of your sensory thresholds, to make sure that the vibration was clearly perceivable on each fingertip, but not too strong?

Or was the intensity even set so low that the vibration could be occasionally missed?

Thanks!

the finger tip vibration is perceivable on each finger tip. The adjustments are not terribly subtle but each fingertip can be adjusted. If I’m walking I don’t notice it as much as when I’m resting, but i can always notice if I give it my attention.
