A new study reports that a treatment called low-field magnetic stimulation (LFMS), which uses weak magnetic waves to stimulate the brain, effectively eased symptoms in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease. LFMS has previously shown promise in improving motor and cognitive functions in brain injury models. The researchers hope to conduct a small-scale study in humans to further test the technology's effectiveness. LFMS has the potential to be a complementary treatment that can be used at home by patients themselves.
