Hi. Thank You for Your support. I would like to ask how many sessions per day do You suggest?
Would it be advantageous while doing the pinch exercises with the card to pinch the card and roll the wrist up and back down when releasing the card
Question: Would combining feeling your phantom limb of your affected side doing the exercises with these help?
Any therapy for lost vision ??? Please suggest !
Is this possible to do at a gym with the big mirrors?
Hello mam... How much time it will take to recover hand power after cmplete paralysis of hand
,we will surely try to my son to cure his right hand . Thank you
Kindly give me stroke pocket guide.. thanks
I’m glad I found this video. Is this something to work on even if your hand is still in a fist? Would doing this with a brace be preferred?
@jwebb753 Mirror therapy is a great way to work on your affected side even when you don't have any movement at all! Your affected hand goes behind the mirror and you're actually looking at your unaffected hand to trick your brain!
Is practicing walking more useful than building leg muscle?

I hope you find it helpful. If you have more specific questions let me know. I've been considering an update on that video 😊

Noted
Had a stroke 5 years ago. This mirror therapy never works. Sure as fuck didn’t get my affected side moving. You can flip-flop your unaffected hand all you want, you’re not tricking anything! Unless you do it like every day or something there’s no benefit and it really doesn’t work!
Different therapy styles help different people in different ways
What a fool this has helped me a lot, I have done this but included things like living the cup to my mouth writing
I do it several times a day do not give up my brain really reacts to it ti is about making new pathways! Keep trying!!!
I kept t Ellington my self my my arm works and I ha able to lift my arm in to my lap now I will keep working until till I get it back, positive attitude will help me. I pray Tice what I can do and do every, methothod I see. Tapping ais helping alot
Don't give up
You’re awesome, thank you
@itspossible09 Thank you so much! 😊
