Jane has had a long road before discovering the Steadi-Two.  The first time Jane noticed her tremor when she was 11 years old. At the time, her tremor didn’t hamper her ability to feed herself, write, or performing other everyday activities. However, as she entered her late teenage years, her tremor became more pronounced.  After Jane sought the advice of doctors and specialists, Jane was put on Valium — a medication that is commonly used to treat a range of conditions, including anxiety.

Eventually, when Jane was in her late 20s, she was diagnosed with Essential tremor.  Essential tremor is a progressive nervous system disorder that causes uncontrollable shakes.  The shakes vary from person to person – but it can include tremor to the head, hands, arms, legs, trunk, and sometimes even people’s voice.

As time went on, the Essential Tremor progressed and Jane’s tremors worsened. By the time Jane was in her 40’s she stated “It started affecting my entire body – not just my hands, but also my head and neck.”  Jane explains how simple tasks can cause her so much frustration, it can bring her to tears. “My day starts with brushing my teeth, the next thing I know my gums are bleeding from hitting them with my toothbrush, and the day just goes on from there.”

Jane explained that the Steadi-Two helped her to feel more confident, and in control. She said “I liked the idea of magnets controlling my body instead of having to consume medications that can make me feel out of control in other ways,
