Sensory Stimulation of the Triceps Surae Muscle Complex Modulates Spinal Reflex Responses—A Comparison between Tapotement Massage and Repetitive Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation (rPMS)

Sensory Stimulation of the Triceps Surae Muscle Complex Modulates Spinal Reflex Responses—A Comparison between Tapotement Massage and Repetitive Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation (rPMS)

Background: The reduction of muscular hypertonia is important in the treatment of various diseases or rehabilitation. This study aims to test the efficacy of a 5 Hz mechanical muscle stimulation (tapotement massage) in comparison to a 5 Hz repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) on the neu...
