“…When combined with motor training, PNS has additional positive effects on cerebral plasticity (Celnik et al, 2007) and leads to greater outcomes on various dexterity indexes (McDonnell & Ridding, 2006). Preliminary evidence suggests that repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation might also be useful to promote motor or sensory recovery (Beaulieu & Schneider, 2013; Krewer, Hartl, Müller, & Koenig, 2014). …”

Contemporary strategies to promote motor recovery following stroke focus on repetitive voluntary movements. Although successful movement relies on efficient sensorimotor integration, functional outcomes often bias motor therapy toward motor-related impairments such as weakness, spasticity and synergies; sensory therapy and reintegration is implied, but seldom targeted. However, the planning and execution of voluntary movement requires that the brain extracts sensory information regarding body position and predicts future positions, by integrating a variety of sensory inputs with ongoing and planned motor activity. Neurological patients who have lost one or more of their senses may show profoundly affected motor functions, even if muscle strength remains unaffected. Following stroke, motor recovery can be dictated by the degree of sensory disruption. Consequently, a thorough account of sensory function might be both prognostic and prescriptive in neurorehabilitation. This review outlines the key sensory components of human voluntary movement, describes how sensory disruption can influence prognosis and expected outcomes in stroke patients, reports on current sensory-based approaches in post-stroke motor rehabilitation, and makes recommendations for optimizing rehabilitation programs based on sensory stimulation.

“…We have recently reported the use of PMS applied to the cervical area and that such treatment resulted in immediate improvement of swallowing . Interestingly, a recent randomized controlled study indicated that the application of PMS alone without rehabilitation produced less than ideal effect . Based on this background, we designed a protocol that combines rPMS and intensive swallowing rehabilitation program for treatment of poststroke dysphagia.…”

“…There is also evidence that NMMS effectively reduces spastic tone in central paresis [20,31,32] and has positive short‐ and medium‐term therapeutic effects on myofascial pain [33]. Struppler et al demonstrated that repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation of skeletal muscles increased the resistance and the electromyographic responses of the elbow flexors and extensors to slow passive stretching [19].…”
