Long-term Paired Associative Stimulation as a Treatment for Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury of Non-traumatic Origin

Long-term Paired Associative Stimulation as a Treatment for Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury of Non-traumatic Origin

The investigators have recently shown in incomplete SCI patients that long-term paired associative stimulation is capable of restoring voluntary control over some paralyzed muscles and enhancing motor output in the weak muscles (1). In this study, the investigators will administer long-term paired associative stimulation to patients with incomplete SCI of non-traumatic origin.

Inclusion Criteria:

• incomplete SCI of non-traumatic origin

Exclusion Criteria:

• epilepsy
• metal inclusion in the head area
