Transcranial DC Stimulation: Physiology and Clinical Applications 〰️
Transcranial DC Stimulation (tDCS) has been extensively studied since the 1980s, totalling roughly 750 studies to date. A major advantage of tDCS is that it may be applied directly over an area of concern where the cortical activity over a specific site on the brain may be enhanced or suppressed, much like NF. Over 1000 studies on tDCS, including 200 on stroke rehabilitation (ataxia, apraxia and aphasia) have been published to date.
