Virtual Reality Mirror Therapy for Stroke Recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a virtual reality system that uses mirror therapy—a technique where you practice movements with your unaffected side while watching a reflection—to help improve movement and function after stroke. The system uses special attention-focusing technology to help your brain relearn movements on the affected side.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke that affected one side of your body
- Your stroke occurred more than 6 months ago
- You were right-handed before your stroke
- You can think and remember clearly (score of 25 or higher on a mental function test)
- You don't have severe vision problems or other brain conditions

This trial tests whether virtual reality exercises can help improve arm and hand function after a stroke. It uses a special mirror therapy technique combined with cooperative tasks in a virtual environment.
This study tests whether virtual reality mirror therapy can help people recover arm movement after a stroke. It is for people who had an ischemic stroke a few months ago and still have some arm weakness.
This study compares two therapies—mirror therapy and virtual reality—to help improve arm and hand function in people who have had a stroke. It aims to find which approach works better for recovery.
This study tests whether using a special mirror system with augmented reality (computer-enhanced images) can help improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. The therapy uses reflection and visual tricks to help your brain relearn how to control the weaker arm.
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 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.
