Abstract

Application of tDCS in parallel with MT represents a promising neurorehabilitation tool for post-stroke patients regarding upper limb motor performance, movement efficiency and daily function. Future studies are needed in order to clarify whether sequential or concurrent tDCS and MT application is more beneficial.
