Over the past three decades, substantial advancements have occurred in non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS). These developments encompass various techniques aimed at modulating function. Among most widely utilized methods today are transcranial magnetic (TMS) and electrical (TES), which include direct- or alternating-current (tDCS/tACS). In addition to these established techniques, newer modalities emerged, broadening scope of neuromodulation approaches available for research clinical applications movement disorders, particularly Parkinson’s disease (PD) and, a lesser extent, atypical Parkinsonism (AP). All NIBS offer opportunity explore wide range neurophysiological mechanisms exert influence over distinct regions implicated pathophysiology Parkinsonism. This paper’s first aim is provide brief overview historical background underlying physiological principles primary focusing on their translational relevance. It aims shed light potential identification biomarkers diagnostic therapeutic purposes, by summarising experimental data individuals with To date, despite promising findings indicating utility Parkinsonism, integration into routine protocols remains subject ongoing investigation scientific debate. this context, paper addresses current unsolved issues methodological challenges concerning use NIBS, importance future endeavours maximizing efficacy relevance strategies
