      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Randomization will be done using random numbers created by the computer. Random sequence generation software is used to generate numbers. Each random sequence is recorded on a card and the cards are sealed inside the envelope. At the beginning of the registration of participants, based on the order of entry of eligible participants into the study, one of the envelopes of the letter is opened in order and the assigned group of the participant is revealed, Blinding description: The double-blind side includes the patient and the person who is responsible for analyzing the data. The patient knows that he has participated in a study but does not know what treatment is receiving. The person who is responsible for analyzing the data does not know which patient was involved in the intervention group.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: in the intervention group, stimulation with the right anode and left cathode is performed by a specialist technician without the knowledge of the subject and the experimenter. The intervention will be performed randomly with an intensity of 2 mA on the posterior-lateral forehead area. The protocol is 8 sessions of 30 minutes with three-day intervals and the measurements will be done one hour after the end of the session. Intervention 2: Control group: The right anode and left cathode will place on the forehead by an experienced technician with no knowledge of the subject but the machine will not turn on.</i_freetext>
