Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) applied alone has been shown to increase motor evoked potential (MEP) amplitude, suggesting it enhances corticospinal tract excitability. high-frequency paired associative stimulation (h-PAS), which synchronizes transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) with high-frequency peripheral stimulation, is believed to promote neural reorganization by precisely timing the stimulation of motor pathways from the brain to the periphery.
This study aims to compare the effects of tSCS and h-PAS on physiological motor and sensory changes and on limb motor performance (muscle strength and dexterity) in healthy participants and individuals with spinal cord injury.

After setting the stimulation intensity beforehand, we will apply electrical stimulation to the cervical region using transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS), and measure electroencephalography (EEG) and electromyography (EMG) before and after the intervention.
