Interventions

OTHERtDCS and bodily illusions

Participants will be required to perform (in person) 10 interventions over a time frame of 2-4 weeks. They can perform this everyday or for a minimum of 2-3 times per week over 4 weeks. Two types of illusions will be used 15 min each, the rubber hand illusion and the walking illusion to target upper and lower limbs.
