Any thoughts on the Vibration Gloves?
by u/cicla in Parkinsons

few notes

according to the video, the glove treatment is very affective, some results show after 1 day, at least for some people the effect of symptom reduction is amazing, this suggest that the cause of symptoms was not massive dopaminergic cell death but instead, dysregulation of dopaminergic cells that disrupted dopamine production

the developer of the treatment looks at the problem (PD..dopaminergic cells not releasing dopamine) from a systems perspective, and develop a way to reset existing dysregulation (or more specifically disrupt synchronization – a process in which one cell type sync other cell types, to behave like it )

it’s a way to reboot/restart to prevent accumulation of processing errors. actually it’s more targeted then a general restart. Maybe Electroconvulsive therapy, more suitable “reset” option ..some evidence >>

for example, you can solve most Windows errors simply by rebooting it. If you had to dive into some window issue (e.g. computer hanging, slow, printer messed, weird error message, apps installed don’t work..) well, not a realistic goal

so, when looking at parkinson’s from a system approach perspective, a good start would be to find a way to reboot you system

this will not solve all issues, e.g. if you got PD from exposure to a toxin rebooting your system will not to much

same with windows, if you got a computer virus and it’s causing issue. a reboot might not be sufficient

but in case a particular sequence of events is not handled well by the system and cause an error situation with lasting effect.. reboot might help as long as you don’t repeat that sequence

in my case, many years ago, I lost my sense of smell, at the time, I theorized that my intuition took over some of the neurons dedicated to the processing of smell, intuition was one of my mostly used “modules” ( see Meir Briges type classifier, this personality type classification is based on identifying the main modules used’ e.g thinking/sensing/feeling/intuiting)
