Condition: Patellar Tendinopathy · Sponsor: University of Valencia
The aim of the present study is to investigate the effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) prior to a therapeutic eccentric exercise program on parameters related to pain and functionality in individuals with patellar tendinopathy. For this purpose, participants will be randomly divided into two groups: i) experimental group, receiving tDCS prior to a therapeutic exercise program; and ii) control group, receiving sham tDCS and a therapeutic exercise program. The interventions will last for 8 weeks. Additionally, four assessments will be conducted (baseline, week 4, week 8 and week 12). The variables studied are related to pain, functionality, muscle activity and strength, proprioception, and quality of life.
