Abstract

Mirror Therapy is a form of Imagery in which a Mirror is used to convey visual stimuli to the brain through observation of one’s unaffected body part as it carries out a set of movements.It was first described by V.S Ramachandran.(7) The underlying Principle is that movement of the affected limb can be stimulated via visual cues originating from the opposite side of the body.Hence, it is thought this form of Therapy can prove useful in Stroke patients who have lost movements of an arm or leg.

Key Words Stroke, Mirror Therapy,Visual Feedback.
