Summary
This randomized clinical trial aims to compare the effects of two different trans-spinal magnetic stimulation (tsMS) application sites, cervical versus thoracic, when combined with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), on functional mobility in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). Participants diagnosed with PD will be randomized into two intervention groups (rTMS + cervical tsMS or rTMS + thoracic tsMS) and will undergo 10 treatment sessions. Outcomes will include functional mobility, gait speed, motor function, freeing of gait, balance, quality of life, global perceived improvement and adverse events. The study is expected to identify the most effective tsMS application site to enhance mobility and motor outcomes in PD, contributing to the optimization and standardization of tsMS protocols as an adjunct therapy.
