Summary
This study tests two new therapy systems that use virtual reality (VR) or mixed reality (MR) to help stroke survivors improve arm function. Participants will perform movements while watching a mirrored hand in a headset. The trial aims to see if these high-tech approaches are feasible and more effective than traditional mirror therapy for daily activities.
