Summary

This study tested whether a therapy called 'illusory movements' (where patients imagine or sense movement without actually moving) could help reduce muscle breakdown in people with severe burns covering 20% or more of their body. Researchers measured energy use, muscle loss, and other metabolic changes in 12 patients. The goal was to see if this mind-based rehab approach could improve recovery when physical movement is very limited.
