A stroke damages parts of the brain due to a lack of oxygen for a given time. As a result patients often experience a loss in muscle control, which leads to significant movement disability. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can help to restore some of this function, by stimulation damaged areas and helping neurons recover.
