Sensory feedback and mirror therapy for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke at least 3 months ago that affected only one side of your body.
- You are between 20 and 85 years old.
- You have some arm movement but not full use, as determined by a special arm test performed by the study team.
- You can follow instructions and have no major thinking or memory problems.
- You are not taking part in other stroke rehabilitation studies or drug trials.
- You do not have severe arm pain, swelling, tightness, or stiffness that prevents practice.

This trial tests a mix of virtual reality (VR) and mirror therapy to help improve arm movement after a stroke. You may be asked to use the technology and give feedback, and the study may compare it with other care approaches to see if it helps more.
This study tests if combining robotic therapy with mirror therapy can help improve arm function after a stroke. It is for people who had their first stroke 3 months to 2 years ago and have some but not full arm movement.
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 mirror-based therapy can help improve movement in the affected hand and wrist after a stroke. It may help you regain upper-limb function when standard rehab alone isn’t enough.
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 compares two types of arm rehabilitation after stroke: mirror therapy combined with either task-oriented (practicing daily activities) or impairment-oriented (targeting specific arm weaknesses) exercises. It aims to see which approach better improves arm and hand function.
