Description
Yukti K Agrawal and Suraj Kanase test watching-and-copying therapy after stroke. Their trial appeared in 2026. It targets the swinging leg gait. Thirty patients showed that gait pattern. They were split evenly into two groups. One group added action observation to standard physiotherapy. Videos showed normal gait patterns. Patients then tried to imitate them. The other group got physiotherapy alone. Footprints and motion software scored each walk.
The watching group gained more on every score. Gait symmetry improved the most in that group. Swing-out angle shrank further there. Strides grew longer and steps grew narrower. Each gain cleared the set significance bar. Mirrored learning is a cheap add-on. It helps the brain relearn straight walking. Daily mobility lifts as a result.
