Clinical evidence in stroke indicates tSCS during gait training improved walking performance and reduced lower-limb spasticity. tSCS at the thoracic spinal column recruits large-to-medium-diameter afferent nerve fibres in dorsal roots. tSCS can regulate noradrenergic and serotonergic activity through ascending pathways to brainstem nuclei. tSCS is proposed to improve upper limb motor function by increasing alpha motor neuron excitability and enhancing muscle coordination.
