Experimental Treatment
Group I: SCI GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Complete testing at Baseline, Post, and 6 month follow up. Intervention includes 15 treatment sessions (3-5 times per week) with HF-rTMS \& 6 month follow-up. Following HF-rTMS, there will be 30 minutes of arm and hand training. Each session will last for approximately 60 mins. At baseline, post and 6 months, the following evaluations to evaluate safety and other related measures. These measures include a safety and pain questionnaire, spasticity measurement, a physician or clinician evaluation to determine motor and sensory neurological level of injury, hand and arm function measurement, evaluation of ability to perform everyday tasks, and measures to determine level of brain function.
