Mirror Therapy Session for Stroke Survivors

[@caseysmith3329]

Great vid. I almost started crying tears of joy from the tricking of my brain at the view of an unaffected hand.

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

[@fatimabelkasmi6312]

Hi, thank you very much. I am from Holland. Please can you tell me if all the exercises must be done in one session ? Or just one exercise per session? My husband has had a stroke 4 months ago😢 and is paralysed on his right side.

[@jayge26]

This was great. Thanks

[@PostStrokeOrg]

So glad it was helpful! ❤️

[@tokyoredmedia3373]

Question: Would combining feeling your phantom limb of your affected side doing the exercises with these help?

[@MansoorJaffar-k8w]

Kindly give me stroke pocket guide.. thanks

[@jwebb753]

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?

[@PostStrokeOrg]

@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!

[@Natalie-dd5hj]

Is this possible to do at a gym with the big mirrors?

[@danielmartin6864]

Hi Elyse do you have any programs for Sensory loss? Similar exercises would be much appreciated?Great stuff. You are amazing. Thanks ❤❤😊

[@PostStrokeOrg]

Hi Daniel, Thank you for the kind words! I do have one video from 2021 on improving sensation: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJWXnYyBpcSDaZo I hope you find it helpful. If you have more specific questions let me know. I've been considering an update on that video 😊

[@johnjohnson1313]

[@kylechicago8189]

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!

[@PostStrokeOrg]

Different therapy styles help different people in different ways

[@jennifermink6353]

What a fool this has helped me a lot, I have done this but included things like living the cup to my mouth writing

[@jennifermink6353]

[@jennifermink6353]

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
