Summary

This study tested whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can improve balance and walking in people with Parkinson's disease. 21 participants received both low- and high-frequency stimulation in a double-blind crossover design. The goal was to see if a single session could temporarily ease movement symptoms.
