Summary

This study tested whether mirror therapy can reduce pain and improve movement in stroke patients who also have complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Forty adults who had a stroke within the past year and were diagnosed with CRPS took part. They received either real mirror therapy or a sham version for 20 minutes daily over 4 weeks, alongside standard rehab. The goal was to see if the therapy could ease pain, reduce swelling, and improve arm function.
