The Problem
Many patients suffer at least 18 years from Essential Tremmor
52%of people diagnosed with E.T. are categorized as mild, 32% as moderate, and 16% as suffering from severe tremors. Usually, the first signs start between the age of 40 and 50. The average patient's age is 69.
79%of patients cannot perform even basic daily tasks
Essential Tremor affects a person's ability to eat, drink, write or perform other basic tasks, essentially depriving patients of the ability to perform basic tasks necessary to lead an independent, active life.
Ca. 3% of the US population (10 mil people) are affected
Each year there are about 25,000 new patients diagnosed with Essential Tremor.
