Sham Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)
tDCS is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique in which a very weak electrical current (2 mA) is applied to the scalp at the beginning of the session and then remains at 0 mA for the duration of the session to control for placebo-like effects. The anode and cathode will both be placed over the cerebellum.
Balance Training
The balance training protocol will include balance training exercises on both compliant (i.e., foam pad and trampoline) and firm surfaces.
2 mA Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
tDCS is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique in which very weak electrical current (2 mA) is applied to the scalp for 20 minutes. The anode and cathode will both be placed over the cerebellum.
4 mA Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
tDCS is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique in which very weak electrical current (4 mA) is applied to the scalp for 20 minutes. The anode and cathode will both be placed over the cerebellum.
