Interventions

DEVICE

Transcranial magnetic stimulation

TMS (theta burst) will be administered consisting of bursts containing 3 pulses at 50 Hz and an intensity of 80% motor threshold repeated at 200 ms intervals (i.e., at 5 Hz) and a 10 s between burst triplet interval for a total for 190 s (600 pulses). The intervention will be given daily 5 times/week during 4 weeks.

BEHAVIORAL
