Mirror therapy priming with impairment-oriented training
In the regimen, participants will perform MT first followed by impairment-oriented training. After completion of MT, participants will practice impairment-oriented training that emphasizes on restoration of movement. After that, the contents of home practice will be designed corresponding to treatment principles of the clinic-based intervention.

The control intervention will include practice of gross/fine motor activities, training of activities of daily living, practice to increase range of motions, muscle strengthening, as well as use of adaptive or compensatory technique to alleviate functional deficits.
