简要总结
**Title:**Assessing the effectiveness of 6 weeks of mirror therapy on fine motor recovery in individuals with post-traumatic brain injury.
This study evaluates whether six weeks of mirror therapy can significantly improve fine motor skills—hand dexterity and hand strength—in individuals with post-traumatic brain injury (TBI). A quasi-experimental design with 22 participants, recruited through convenient sampling according to inclusion criteria from rehabilitation centres in South Bangalore. Mirror therapy is delivered by placing the affected hand behind a mirror while the unaffected hand performs movements that create a visual illusion, stimulating motor recovery through mirror neuron activation. Mirror therapy will be given for 7 days/week for 6 weeks. Assessments will be taken at baseline, 3 weeks, and 6 weeks using validated tools: the Wolf Motor Function Test and Fugl-Meyer Assessment, and the results will be analysed and interpreted.
