Brain stimulation device for Parkinson's motor symptoms
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a wearable brain stimulation device (tES) that delivers gentle electrical currents to your head to help improve Parkinson's motor symptoms like tremor, stiffness, or slowness. The treatment is done at home with remote video monitoring, and may offer a non-medication option to help with movement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 80 years old and have a confirmed Parkinson's diagnosis.
- Your symptoms should be at a mild to moderate level (stages 1-4 on the Parkinson's scale).
- You must be on a stable medication plan for at least 4 weeks before starting the study.
- You need reliable internet access and a device for telehealth appointments.
- You cannot have metal implants in your head or neck (except dental fillings), a history of seizures, or be pregnant or nursing.
- You must be willing to attend all treatment sessions and follow-up visits.

This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to see if it can help improve movement problems in people with Parkinson's disease. If you have Parkinson's, this might be an option to explore.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial temporal interference stimulation (TTIS) that you can use at home with remote supervision. It aims to improve movement problems like stiffness, tremor, and slowness in people with mild-to-moderate Parkinson's disease.
This trial tests whether daily, long-term use of pulsed electromagnetic fields applied to the head can help reduce Parkinson's symptoms. It is for people with mild to moderate Parkinson's who are not on certain blood thinners and have no major health complications like other neurological diseases or active implants.
This trial tests if a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS can improve depression symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease. You'll receive either real or placebo stimulation over several sessions to see if it helps your mood.
This study tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to the scalp can improve thinking, language, and movement problems in people with Parkinson's disease. You will receive either real or pretend stimulation to see if it helps.
This trial tests a new, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called temporal interference stimulation) to see if it can improve Parkinson's symptoms. It uses MRI to guide the treatment, and the goal is to help with movement and other symptoms without surgery.
