Interesting in Participating?

We’re inviting individuals to take part in a research study testing a non-invasive treatment called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). 

This study explores how brain activity, measured by EEG, can help personalize TMS treatment, and whether timing the treatment to specific brain patterns makes it more effective.

Our work will help us see if TMS could be a practical and effective option for managing CRPS pain.

What are we exploring?

This study will explore a novel way of delivering brain stimulation in people with CRPS.

This approach involves non-invasive brain stimulation being delivered over the primary motor cortex over a time period of approximately 30 minutes.
