No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The main purpose of the study is to assess the mechanisms of repeated sessions of repetitive trancranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) applied on left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex on the development of pain in a prolonged muscle pain model.

Conditions

  • Pain Relief

Interventions

DEVICE

Repetitive trancranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) group

Repetitive trancranial magnetic stimulation is applied on the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. The protocol consists on 20 minutes of 10Hz stimulation, 5 seconds on, 10 seconds off, at 110% RMT, for a total of 4000 pulses.

DEVICE

Sham group

A sham coil is used to mimic the clicking sound of the trancranial magnetic coil and skin stimulation.
