A Selected Balance Exercise Combined with Anodal tDCS Was Beneficial in Balance Performance but not in Working Memory in Healthy Older Adults

Abstract

Background: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has recently drawn attention as an inexpensive, painless, safe, and effective technique to improve motor performance and cognitive function in older adults. This study examined the effects of a selected balance exercise combined with anodal tDCS on balance performance in older adults.
