Summary

This study tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to the spine (called tsDCS) can improve reflexes, walking, and balance in people who have leg weakness after a stroke. Researchers will measure changes in movement and adaptation over 15 sessions. The goal is to understand if this non-invasive technique can aid recovery, not to cure the condition.
