Summary

Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) is a group of inherited brain disorders. SCA often result in poor limb coordination. This study aims to discover the effects of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on balance \& gait in SCA. The hypothesis of this study is that rTMS might improve SCA limb functional performance.
