Zapping the brain to soothe the body: new hope for unexplained aches and anxiety

NCT ID NCT05161819

Summary

This study is testing whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique can help people with somatic symptom disorder, a condition where mental distress causes significant physical symptoms like pain or fatigue. Researchers will use a magnetic device to stimulate a specific part of the brain and measure if it reduces patients' physical distress and health-related anxiety. The trial involves 30 participants and compares the real stimulation to a sham (fake) treatment to see if the effects are genuine.
