Stroke is one of the leading causes for disability worldwide. Motor function deficits due to
stroke affect the patients' mobility, their limitation in daily life activities, their participation in …

Abstract Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive technique used to
modulate neural tissue. Neuromodulation apparently improves cognitive functions in several …

The application of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) to paretic limbs has
demonstrated utility for motor rehabilitation following brain injury. When NMES is delivered …

It is well known that prolonged passive muscle stretch reduces maximal muscle force
production. There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that adaptations occurring …

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) of the nervous system has been extensively
used in neurorehabilitation due to its capacity to engage the muscle fibers, improving …

Present interventions utilized in musculoskeletal rehabilitation are guided, in large part, by a
biomedical model where peripheral structural injury is believed to be the sole driver of the …

Motor imagery (MI) has been largely studied as a way to enhance motor learning and to
restore motor functions. Although it is agreed that users should emphasize kinesthetic …

The interaction between the somatosensory and motor systems is important for normal
human motor function and learning. Enhancing somatosensory input using somatosensory …

Increasing evidence suggests that reactivation of newly acquired memory traces during
postlearning wakefulness plays an important role in memory consolidation. Here, we sought …

The aim of this review was to provide an overview of the recent findings on the acute and
chronic effects of static stretching on joint behaviors and neuromuscular responses and to …
