Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to verify the efficacy of body weight-support treadmill training combined with high-frequency rTMS in improving the sensory-motor function of adult patients with chronic incomplete thoracolumbar spinal cord injury.
Detailed Description: A randomized, sham-controlled, double-blinded and parallel group trial (12 therapeutic sessions). Active or sham rTMS will be combined with body weight-support treadmill training to verify the improvement of sensory-motor function in patients with incomplete spinal cord injury. Behavioral assessments will be performed before, after 6 and 12 therapeutic sessions and at the 30-day follow-up after the intervention, though: (i) the WISCI-II Index; (ii) ASIA Impairment Scale (AIS), (iii) ASIA Lower Extremities Motor Scale (LEMS), (iv) Ashworth Modified Scale; (v) the Functional Independence Measure (SCIM-III), (vi) the Short Form Health Survey 36 (SF-36) and (vii) the Patient Global Impression of Change Scale - (PGICS).
