Summary

Pain is the most prevalent non-motor symptom in Parkinson disease, and the motor improvement not always is related to the pain improvement with the medication treatment. By this, we are testing a non-invasive method called transcranial magnetic stimulation as an alternative to treat pain related to Parkinson disease. This technique can lead to either inhibitory or excitatory effects in brain circuits depending on stimulation parameters, and is known to provide analgesic effects.
