Previous research has shown the effectiveness of magnetic stimulation of the brain as a supplemental treatment for various conditions, such as depression and chronic pain. However, the application of magnetic stimulation has been standardized across patients without considering individual differences. This one-size-fits-all approach results in only half of the patients benefiting from the treatment, with the other half seeing no improvement in their symptoms. Therefore, a study on individuals with chronic pain will be performed to explore how magnetic stimulation treatments can be tailored to each person. This will involve analysing brain signal measurements before the start of the therapy and adjusting/personalizing the magnetic stimulations to each individual person.
