This study aims to investigate the augmented effects of VCT on neuromotor control and UE motor function by NIBS in patients with CP. We hypothesize that NIBS can augment the VCT effects on neuromotor control and UE motor function in patients with CP because combined therapy integrated peripheral modification techniques (VCT) and central modulation (NIBS). These effects may further enhance the activity of daily living (ADL), participation, and health related quality of life (HRQOL). This project is executed in the following two phases: to investigate the augmented effects of VCT on neuromotor control and UE motor function in patients with CP by rTMS in phase 1 (0-1.5 years) and tCS in phase 2 (1.5-3 years).
