Summary
This study tests whether a non-invasive electrical stimulation applied to the back can boost the benefits of walking therapy for people with incomplete spinal cord injury. 18 adults with chronic spinal cord injury will receive either real or fake stimulation during their walking sessions. The goal is to see if the stimulation helps improve walking speed, endurance, and spinal reflexes.
