Constraint-induced movement therapy

Journal of the Korean Medical Association, 2013
Upper extremity paresis is a major impairment after stroke. Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT), which is in contrast to traditional rehabilitation techniques, such as neurodevelopmental approaches and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, has initiated evidencebased medicine in stroke rehabilitation research.
