In-House Case Studies
Pebble People have completed in-house case studies ranging from three to six months. Use the buttons below to view samples of the weekly reporting. Summaries and complete data sets are available upon request.
Please Spread the Word
Pebble’s growth depends on word of mouth from successful Pebble People. We need to gather as much data as possible.
Please refer anyone who is battling any of these these neurological disorders. Please also refer folks dealing with these cancers, taking these chemotherapy drugs, or experiencing any of these chemo side effects.
To show our gratitude, we’ll repeat your most recent order for free, no matter how big it was. Pebble will also automatically setup the person you refer (as an already diagnosed medical patient) with a permanent 40% off personal discount code.
