Duo Coronet and Coronase--Opinions before I buy them?

[1LittleWillow]

I'm considering buying the Coronet with the Coronase, but I'd like some input from anyone who's had one for a while since it's a big expense. Are they sturdy? Do they last? I don't see anything about a warranty on the website.

Thanks, Grumpy. I think I read that thread yesterday. I'm already pretty convinced about the benefits of red light, but I was wondering if people who have the WellRed products are happy with the quality.

I have been using the Coronet at least once a day since June of 2019. It is sturdy and reasonably comfortable. I take it with me on trips packed in my luggage. My PD has been stable throughout this whole period. The only thing that has changed is that the dyskinesia has become more pronounced at times but I attribute that largely to the levodopa. My mitochondria seem to be responding positively to the red light therapy.

Great to hear that it's still functioning well for you. That's exactly what I was wondering about. Thank you!

I've been using it for about 3 months and notice no change.

Thanks for the reply. Hopefully there are unseen benefits (i.e. slowed progression)!

Hello, I've been using the Wellred coronet since June 2021 and added the coronase at some point. Agree with Blulaser that they are sturdy and comfortable. Dr. Catherine Hamilton (one of the owners) is very responsive to inquiries and answering questions. I also take them on trips and have never had an issue with airport security. I am grateful that my PD has remained stable since my dx in 2020. I believe the photobiomodulation has much to do with it. I would highly recommend, as there is no downside to using it.

Thanks!

gice thought to Neuronic's 1070nm technology and combi e this with brainwave biofeedback. We've seen significant improvement in symltins with these tools. Photobiomodulation is a very potent tool for PD, professional guidance makes it much more effective.

My husband s had the Coronet for a couple of years, before that the Menshed one. Uses it everyday, doesn’t take it on holidays in case we lose it. I think it’s been very beneficial for him.

I’ve written a few posts about it, one here

I have been using the Duo Coronet and Coronase for almost two months.

I was not diagnosed with Parkinsons but have other neurological reasons for trying red light therapy. I was in a car accident a while back and still experience some sleep, cognitive, emotional and physical difficulties related to a traumatic brain injury.

I don't really notice much change as yet, but I intend to continue to use the device on the chance that there may be some noticeable improvement. I am following the 6 days per week, 2x a day protocol.

I thought the the device was well conceived, as far as I can tell, not really knowing what the required energy output from the LED's should be in order to penetrate the skull. I only have advertising and the occasional scientific study to refer to regarding recommended therapeutic requirements. Unfortunately, I'm not really qualified to sort this out.

It was a bit tricky for me to shape the device from its flat form as shipped into something I can fit over my noggin, but the link to a PDF with assembly instructions was helpful. It isn't a perfect fit, and I'm not sure if that can be improved with further tweaks, but I don't care to mess with it any more.

One thing I found a bit disappointing was that the wire for the Coronase is just barely long enough. I had seen criticism of this detail on a Reddit thread a couple years back and was assured that this had been improved when I inquired before purchase, but it is still a problem as far as the unit that I was shipped. I also think that the Coronase part is comparatively overpriced, considering one is paying for 2 LED's, wire, connectors and some silicone rubber type sealing that does not seem to be totally waterproof. I'd imagine that direct current connected LED's in contact with a runny nose could be an issue, but I don't know. I don't use it when my allergies cause a runny nose.
