Mirror Therapy with Electrical Stimulation or Sound Beats after Stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if combining mirror therapy with either gentle electrical stimulation or special sound beats can help improve leg movement and brain activity after a stroke. It is designed for people who had their first stroke at least 6 months ago and have some movement in their leg.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had your first stroke at least 6 months ago.

- You have some movement in your affected leg or ankle (at least a little).
- You do not have severe problems with hearing, seeing, or speaking that would make therapy hard.

This trial tests whether using a mirror together with mild electrical stimulation on the skin can improve lower-limb movement after stroke. You may be eligible if you can already lift your ankle a bit and walk independently, and if certain thinking, vision, and skin issues are not present.
This study tests whether mirror therapy—watching your unaffected arm move in a mirror to trick your brain—helps improve movement, feeling, and quality of life after a stroke. It's for people who still have some arm and leg function and can follow simple instructions.
This study tests whether using a mirror to create a visual illusion of leg movement can help improve walking and balance for people who have recently had a stroke. It is designed for patients who are still in the hospital and have weakness on one side of their body.
This trial tests whether using a mirror to create the illusion of movement can help improve arm function in people who had a stroke more than six months ago. It may be a good option if you have limited arm movement and can follow simple instructions.
This trial tests whether combining sensory feedback with mirror therapy can help people who have had a stroke improve arm movement. It may be a good option if you are at least three months past your stroke and have some but limited arm function.
This study compares two rehabilitation approaches—mirror therapy (using a mirror to help retrain your affected side) and cognitive orientation to daily tasks—for people recovering from stroke. The goal is to see which method helps improve arm, hand, and leg function better.
