Abstract

Date Presented 4/8/2016

Mirror therapy (MT) is used in practice; however, no studies have compared the two MT protocols for upper-limb recovery. This pilot study is an important step in deciphering the superiority of the available protocols and furthers our knowledge regarding best practice for the use of MT in recovery poststroke.
