Has anyone had any benefits using the VILIM Bal? Seems pretty interesting.

VILIM Ball
I noticed this today: VILIM Ball trial - Esther(Part 3 of 3) youtu.be/j31VNv3jxwc?si=x0H...
I ordered mine about a week ago, so will let you know if they help me. With a 30 day return window I figured it was worth a try!
there are other items that vibrates in your house that you can use and you maybe don't know you have
I bought one for my sister (who has PD) to try. It had absolutely no effect.
My husband (tremor dominant PD) also tried it some time ago but sadly didn’t really seem to make any difference. But as we know PD affects people differently so you may benefit.
I tried it last year, and it didn't work. From what I understand in the directions, if you have any type of dystonia in your neck, arm, or shoulders it won't work. That was my problem.
I have used it for months without any apparent benefit except the to help pass the time while I wait for my meds to start working. It gives me something to do, but I’ve found no benefit to the tremors or dystonia.
Hello, I tried it 21 days without results. Sent it back ang got refunded.

here’s a post from 2 years ago.
the price has dropped tremendously since then!
I tried for a few months but no benefit.
i bought one after tiring of sticking EMS pads on/off my wrists, at well known accupuncture points. it helps some but not as much as they would like you to believe. plus, it was expensive.
i'm waiting for the beech band now. same idea, vibration, but promising to be 1/10th the cost. am also trying to build the 'glove' but my tremors make that difficult.
looked at 'cue1' but not available in the U.S. and, again, hugely expensive. there is another product out there similar to the beech band, a wristwatch type of thing, called cala kIQ which gave me the idea of using my EMS device on the points this thing used on the wrist. seeing as how they make it difficult to obtain one, and are very dodgy on the cost, i did not pursue the cala kIQ - but think it would work. again, the beech band looks similar to cala at a, promised, affordable price.
had not seen this device before. I’m 69 yr old female ex 2010. Currently taking 2 cap of Rytary 145 4xday 5 hrs apart. Also, amantadine 100mg 3/day and Ropinerole .5 mg 2Xday. On times now only 2 maybe 3 hrs a day. Dystonia in neck and shoulders, tremor mainly left side. My husband made a buzz board and rudimentary gloves in July. I faithfully used for 2 hours 2 times a day for 2 months. I did notice an improvement in gait especially for the first 40 min of a 3 mile, fast paced walk. I reduced time buzzing to 1 hr 2 times a day. Improvement has lessened. I think that it may be that the programming algorithm needs to be individually optimized.
