Summary

This study tests whether adding virtual reality therapy to standard rehabilitation and action observation therapy can improve arm and hand function in people who had a stroke 6 weeks to 6 months ago. About 38 adults will be randomly assigned to two groups: one gets standard care plus action observation, the other gets the same plus virtual reality. The goal is to see if VR provides extra benefit for daily activities like eating and dressing.
