Interventions
DEVICE

active repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation

During the rTMS-active stage, treatment will be given for 7 consecutive days (two session daily). The participants will be placed in the semi-reclining position on either a normal chair or a wheelchair and each stimulation session will last 20 minutes with a frequency of 10 Hz (train duration: 1s; inter-train interval: 5s; 200 effective stimulation series; 2000 pulses at 90% of RMT).

DEVICE

sham repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation

The sham coil will be used which has no magnetic field to send to the cerebral cortex while appearing to be the same shape as the active coil, with good approximation of auditory feedback.(train duration: 1s; inter-train interval: 5s; 200 effective stimulation series; 0 pulses at 90% of RMT).
