It seems that that this research in February 2014 with this conclusion would mean the research you did wasn't needed.
Conclusions
Therapy
with rpMS increases sensory function in patients with severe limb
paresis. The magnetic stimulation has, however, limited effect on
spasticity and no effect on motor function.

ABSTRACT
Upper extremity (UE) motor deficits lead to significant disability and dependence in individuals, poststroke. Intense physiotherapy has found to be beneficial in restoring the UE function. Repetitive Magnetic Stimulation (rPMS) is a novel therapeutic modality which aids in the rehabilitation of stroke patients.
It utilizes high-intensity electromagnetic field to stimulate neuromuscular tissue which is found to be beneficial in pain management and other effects such as fracture healing, myostimulation, joint mobilization and spasticity reduction. The rPMS have found to decrease spasticity and bring about muscle balance by relaxing spastic muscles and stimulating antagonistic muscles respectively. Although rPMSis widely used all over the world, literature on the Indian population is lacking. This case report is the first from India which describes the beneficial effects of rPMS in UE rehabilitation of a post-stroke individual using BTL6000 Super Inductive System. © 2020 Published by Innovative Publication.
