Lewis Capaldi has taken part in a new trial for a wrist device to help those who have Tourette’s Syndrome.Capaldi revealed his Tourette’s syndrome diagnosis last year, explaining: “I wanted to speak about it because I didn’t want people to think I was taking cocaine or something,” Capaldi told his followers during the stream about his experience with Tourette’s syndrome, which affects over 300,000 people in the UK.“My shoulder twitches when I am excited, happy, nervous or stressed. It is something I am living with: it’s not as bad as it looks.”Now, the new Neupulse device has been created to try and significantly reduce tics, and has been described as “life-changing” and giving a “significant” reduction in tics.Capaldi was among 121 people to trial the device at the University Of Nottingham, with Sky News reporting that researchers said it helped him “feel calmer and the device clearly suppressed the head and shoulder tics which can be quite painful for him”.At a recent gig, fans took over a rendition of the singer’s hit ‘Someone You Loved’ after the singer experienced his Tourette’s tics.
