The neurostimulation protocol will include 1-Hz rTMS over the bilateral SMA at 110% RMT. The SMA will be identified as 4 cm anterior to the vertex (Cz in standard 10-20 EEG setup). Each session will consist of 6 trains lasting 5 minutes each (300 pulses per train) with an intertrain interval of 1 minute for a total duration of 35 minutes (1800 pulses). Patients will receive 4 sessions each day on 4 consecutive days for a total of 16 sessions. Daily duration of this study protocol should last approximately 170 minutes including a 10-minute break in between each session
