Exclusive Modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy For Motor Recovery In Left Hemiplegic Patient.
Main Article Content
Abstract
Chronic hemiplegics are a big challenge for the therapist to restore their motor skills and the patient survives with poor quality of life and dependency. The study reports a case study on the response of chronic left hemiplegic patient focusing on the role of unique modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy as an intervention that doesn’t respond to the conventional approach. The detail of how the patient progressed in the motor improvement of the paralytic upper limb is discussed. A convergent association of mCIMT& Task-oriented approach has been demonstrated as a success story for post-stroke recovery in a short period of 4 weeks and in kicking off Neuroplasticity.
