Brief Summary:
Pain is the most prevalent non-motor symptom in Parkinson disease, and the motor improvement not always is related to the pain improvement with the medication treatment. By this, we are testing a non-invasive method called transcranial magnetic stimulation as an alternative to treat pain related to Parkinson disease. This technique can lead to either inhibitory or excitatory effects in brain circuits depending on stimulation parameters, and is known to provide analgesic effects.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in baseline of Pain [ Time Frame: base line (moment of inclusion), day 15th, day 45th and in the last day of the sessions of rTMS (4X in two months) ]
    assessing by Visual Analog Scale for Pain (VAS). This scale range from 0 (no pain) to 10 (maximum pain), being considered an effective improvement in the patient's pain when the pain decreases at least in 30% from the basal score.
