About this trial

The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of transspinal direct current stimulation on the functional mobility of post-stroke patients.

The main question it aims to answer is:

Is transspinal direct current stimulation able to improve functional mobility in post-stroke patients?

The researchers will compare transspinal direct current stimulation associated with gait training with sham transspinal direct current stimulation associated with gait training. To verify the effects of stimulation on the functional mobility of post-stroke patients.

Participants:

* They will be assessed before starting the care, after the care has been completed, 15 and 30 days after the care has been completed. * They will take part in 10 sessions of transspinal direct current stimulation associated with gait training.
