First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 02, 2026 · Updated 35 times

Summary

This study tests whether a gentle brain stimulation technique (tDCS) combined with standard speech therapy can reduce stuttering severity and its negative impact on daily life. Sixteen adults who stutter will receive both treatments, and researchers will measure changes in speech fluency, anxiety, and brain activity. The goal is to gather early evidence for a possible new treatment approach.
