Clinical trials: Motor Imagery
Aging, Motor Learning
MI Practice and tDCS With Aging
The mental repetition of movements - or motor imagery (MI) practice - facilitates motor learning. It allows avoiding fatigue that occurs during physical practice; this method is thus particularly interesting for elderly people.
