Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  MIRROR THERAPY   Mirror therapy has shown promise in improving motor function and reducing pain after stroke. MT is an easy-to-apply low-cost technique that can improve an individuals UL function with minimal therapist intervention and can be integrated to the home environment. Mirror Therapy will be given for 15 minutes with breaks in between.  
Comparator Agent  WHOLE BODY VIBRATION  Whole-body vibration training has been suggested to enhance muscle strength and motor function. It has been found that task-oriented training after WBV effectively improved motor function and increased grip strength in patients with subacute stroke. Whole Body Vibrator will be given for 15 minutes with breaks in between.  
 
Inclusion Criteria

Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Whole-body vibration training has been suggested to enhance muscle strength and motor function. It has been found that task-oriented training after WBV effectively improved motor function and increased grip strength in patients with subacute stroke. Limited studies have investigated the combined effect of mirror therapy and whole-body vibration training on upper limb function in stroke patients.
 
Whole Body Vibrator will be given for 15 minutes, 3 times a week for 4 weeks.  
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
To evaluate the Combined Effect of Mirror Therapy with Whole Body Vibrator on Upper Limb Functions using Jebsen - Taylor Hand Function Test and Tardeiu Scale and Functional Independence Measure scale.   1 Year

Brief Summary  
Stroke often leads to upper limb motor impairments, such as muscle weakness, loss of dexterous movement. Motor impairments are associated with an increased risk for stroke-related pain, stiffness and contractures in Upper Limb.
Motor impairments occur in approximately 80% of all cases and are associated with permanent disability and dependence in at least 30%. This negatively affects patients’ activities of daily living and quality of life.
Mirror therapy has shown promise in improving motor function and reducing pain after stroke. MT is an easy-to-apply low-cost technique that can improve an individual’s UL function with minimal therapist intervention and can be integrated to the home environment.
 Whole-body vibration training has been suggested to enhance muscle strength and motor function. It has been found that task-oriented training after WBV effectively improved motor function and increased grip strength in patients with subacute stroke.
 Inspite of these therapies, residual paralysis in upper limb functions have been evident. Studies have suggested that combination of therapies could give better outcome. Limited studies have investigated the combined effect of mirror therapy and whole-body vibration training on upper limb function in stroke patients. Hence, this study was undertaken to evaluate the combined effect of mirror therapy and whole body vibrator on hand functions in stroke patients.
