Transcranial direct current stimulation combined with bodyweight support–tai chi footwork for motor function of stroke survivors: a study protocol of randomised controlled trial
Abstract:IntroductionOur previous studies have proposed the bodyweight support–t’ai chi (BWS-TC) footwork training for stroke survivors with severe motor dysfunction and fear of falling, and have proven its positive effects for motor function. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) provides a non-invasive and safe way to modulate neuronal activity and provoke neuroplastic changes and to improve the motor function of stroke survivors. However, it is unclear whether the integration of BWS-TC and tDCS has synergis… Show more
