What this Trial Is About
To determine whether the combination of non-invasive spinal cord stimulation together with gait rehabilitation reduces spasticity and facilitates recovery of lower limb motor strength and gait function in patients with incomplete SCI, as well as studying the underlying physiopathological changes following incomplete SCI and its modulation by non-invasive stimulation techniques.
