You'll have to send your doctor after the EXACT PROTOCOL used. Since our
fucking failures of stroke associations do not keep track of all stroke research and the protocols used in research you are completely on your own. 500,000+ US stroke survivors a year all looking for the same protocols on how to recover 100%. What a completely idiotic thing to do since we have NO stroke leadership.

Objective
Mirror
therapy (MT) is an approach of neurorehabilitation improving motor
functions after stroke. MT represents a mental process by which an
individual rehearses a given motor action by reflecting movements of the
non-paretic side in a mirror as if it were the affected side. Although a
number of small-scale research studies have shown encouraging results,
there is no clear consensus about the effectiveness of the therapy. The
aim of this study is to investigate objective changes in EEG after MT.
Methods
A
set of seven healthy volunteers carried-out five mirror-box training
sessions. The same training is carried-out twice a week with a patient
with hemiparesis for more than six months. The eleven channels of EEG
placed over the sensorimotor and left occipital cortex are recorded. In
addition to the standard power spectral analysis of EEG we decompose EEG
into elemental components or “atoms.” We estimate EEG atoms using
multiway parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) for modeling.
Results
Compering resting EEG prior and after training we found statistically significant increase of the motor-related oscillatory μ-rhythm
in a hemiparetic patient. Atomic decomposition of EEG shows stable
spatio-frequency components of motor-related synchronization and
desynchronization of EEG in a hemisphere contralateral to the
mirror-box.
