Implementation of IVS3 for Upper Limb Motor Recovery

The therapist installs the patient in front of the device. First, patient puts the healthy side on the table and the therapist records several movements. The software of the device flips the video in order to create a mirrored image of the movement (pretty close to the mirror therapy approach). When all the movements are recorded, patient installs the affected side on the table and the screen is placed over the hand. Likewise, patient has the impression the hand is moving again. Thanks to this action observation principle, therapist can encourage the patient in trying to move again and increase brain plasticity.
