Zapping brain pain: magnetic therapy tested for Parkinson's sufferers
NCT ID NCT05537597
Summary
This study tested whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique could reduce chronic musculoskeletal pain in people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers used repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on 62 participants to target the brain's motor cortex, aiming to relieve pain. They also measured brain activity to understand how the treatment might work and checked for effects on other Parkinson's symptoms like movement, mood, and sleep.
