DEVICE

Brain stimulator v3.0

Brain stimulator v3.0 will be used to deliver 1.5 mA current over the scalp corresponding to the primary motor cortex. The current will be delivered via two surface electrodes 5 × 5 cm placed on the scalp, validated by the previous research

OTHER

Sham Comparator: Control group

The sham set-up will follow a similar protocol as the experimental group but the intensity of the current will be ceased after 30 seconds of stimulation. Participants in the Sham group will feel the identical sensation as the experimental group and will be unable to differentiate between actual and sham tDCS such procedure is validated in earlier studies
