Default Rocking Chair Relief

I am 70 and have tremors primarily on my left side and the best thing I ever did was get a rocking chair, just an ordinary wooden rocking chair. I sit and cross my legs, right thigh over left thigh in my case, place my tremoring hand between my two thighs - this has the effect of dampening the tremors - and then I rock. The rocking motion sort of "drowns out" the tremors and as long as I keep rocking I am virtually tremor free. Through experimentation, you will find other configurations of legs and hands that allow you to shift positions and still get the same effect. I can't tell you what a comfort it is to know there is a place I can go where my symptoms will virtually disappear, even if only temporarily.
