Summary

This study tests whether combining two types of non-invasive brain stimulation can improve balance and coordination in people with ataxia, a condition that affects movement. Researchers will enroll 30 adults with a confirmed ataxia diagnosis. Participants will receive a combination of transcranial alternating current stimulation and intermittent theta burst stimulation to the cerebellum, and their balance will be measured using standard rating scales.
