Brief Summary
20 healthy subjects will be split into 4 groups. Each group will receive one of the following tDCS montages : anodal, bilateral, cathodal or placebo Subjects will receive 2mA for 20 mins of their attributed tDCS. The evaluation is a maximal strength test measured with the IOPI and will take place prior to, immediately following and 30 minutes after stimulation

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change Tongue Maximal Strength
1 RM of tongue strength, measured using the IOPI device
Baseline, immediately after, and 30 minutes after tDCS
Study Arms (4)
Anodal
EXPERIMENTALAnode placer over the affected primary motor cortex, cathode over contralateral supra orbital area. 2 mA, 20min stimulation
Bilateral
EXPERIMENTALAnode placer over the affected primary motor cortex, cathode over unaffected motor cortex. 2 mA, 20min stimulation
Cathodal
EXPERIMENTALCathode placer over the unaffected primary motor cortex, anode over contralateral supra orbital area. 2 mA, 20min stimulation
Placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORanode montage but current is ramped up over 15 secondes, then ramped down. 2 mA, 20min stimulation
Interventions
Subjects received a micro-current through their scalp to induce cortical and subcortical changes
