Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation
Transcutaneous application of electrical (biphasic current, 1ms, 30Hz) stimulation over the back for a 10 minutes session.The intensity of the current will increase until motor reflex threshold. If it will not possible, intensity will be increase until participants report a "strong but comfortable" sensation. Transcutaneous electrical stimulation over back through the electrotherapy device Myomed 932. (Enraf-Nonius, Delft, Netherlands). |
Electrodes are placed over the back for a 10 minutes in the same manner as experimental groups, but will be applied a sham electrical stimulation increasing current intensity during 30 second and decrease intensity subsequentl

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Baseline Motor evoked potential (MEP)
Time Frame: baseline at 0 min.
|
The action potential elicited by transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex through the scalp.
EMG response will be recorded by surface electrodes (Signa lConditioning Electrodes v2.3, Delsys Inc., USA) fixed in quadriceps and tibialis anterior muscles.
by the SENIAM protocol (www.seniam.org).
|
baseline at 0 min.
|
During treatment Motor evoked potential (MEP)
Time Frame: During treatment at 5 min.
|
The action potential elicited by transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex through the scalp.
