It sounds like the Beech Band has to be adjusted to the individual so if a person does not live in the UK how would this happen?

"The Beech Band is a wearable device that can be adjusted to help people with Parkinson's disease. The band's haptic pulse mimics the feeling of tapping a finger on the skin, which can help with symptoms like speech, gait, and tremors.

How it works

The Beech Band is a wrist band that provides a haptic pulse.

The pulse mimics the feeling of tapping a finger on the skin.

The band can be adjusted to help with specific symptoms.

What it can help with

Speech, Gait, Tremors, Dyskinesia, Dystonia, and Face masking.

Who it's for

The Beech Band is designed to be accessible and low cost, without the need for apps or smart technology.

It's intended for people with Parkinson's disease who have fine motor control issues or find multitasking difficult. "

I didn't see way to get on a Waiting List. The home page at their website says this:

"Pre Order's are now closed. We are working hard towards general release.

The BeechBand is in development towards general release. You can also pay it forward and donate.

We are working diligently so we can launch main production as soon as possible. Currently, we are compliant for the UK market, we are also ensuring we are compliant internationally."

I’m currently testing the app version on a Samsung Smart Watch while I wait for the band. So far my speech has improved and I’m noticing improvement in my gait too!

Did you just download the app and it worked or is there adjustments in the app that you have to make for it to be set up for your needs?

there are no adjustments, it simply taps/vibrates at 70bmp

following on from my message earlier, I met a friend for lunch today who has PD as well and is suffering with Dyskinesia, I suggested he put the watch on without telling him much about it and his dyskinesia immediately went away. It was quite amazing to witness!

Dear BeechBand Crew,

Thank you so much for signing up for our emails! We're excited to share our second update with you and want to keep you in the loop with monthly updates on production and timing, as well as insights into what Carl has been up to in the community and some inspiring impact stories.

We’re thrilled to announce that we plan to move straight to a general release of the BeechBand, with the U.K. being the first to receive it. We estimate that will be in the next five months, followed by other regions.

We know many of you are eager to get your hands on it, and we truly appreciate your patience as we work to ensure the product meets our high standards and complies with regional regulations. It’s been a fast-paced journey, and we can’t wait to share more with you soon!

If you pre-ordered, you should have received a separate email with details about your fulfillment timetable.

Recently, our very own Carl had the incredible opportunity to meet with Jessica Krausner, co-host of "The Secret Life of Parkinson’s" podcast, where he was featured back in December. Their inspiring conversation sparked a follow-up visit that has us buzzing with excitement!

During this visit, we had the pleasure of exploring pDNextSteps, a fantastic gym founded by the remarkable Melissa Carlson. Melissa and her co-host Brian Baker have been so dedicated to supporting those diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, they have created a unique and uplifting community that we can't stop raving about!

Since its inception in 2015, pDNextSteps has focused on one vital mission: providing fitness options that truly make a difference for people with Parkinson's. With exercise proven to slow the progression of the disease, this gym has become a beacon of hope and encouragement for many. The welcoming atmosphere and supportive environment they offer have made pDNextSteps an integral part of daily routines for many, enhancing their quality of life through the power of movement.

The purpose of our trip was not only to connect with the amazing team at pDNextSteps but also to engage with neurologists and charity leaders. The community presentation was a resounding success, encouraging attendees to try the BeechBand! We will be releasing videos showing the remarkable impact of the BeechBand over the next few weeks on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.

We’re thrilled about the possibilities that lie ahead and look forward to continuing our partnership with pDNextSteps and Jessica’s charity. Together, we can make a meaningful impact in the lives of those living with Parkinson's disease.

Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for being part of our journey!

From

The BeechBand Team
