Moderate-quality evidence suggests that the following interventions may be effective: constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT), mental practice, mirror therapy, interventions for sensory impairment, virtual reality and a relatively high dose of repetitive task practice. Moderate-quality evidence also indicates that unilateral arm training (exercise for the affected arm) may be more effective than bilateral arm training (doing the same exercise with both arms at the same time).
Some evidence shows that a greater dose of an intervention is better than a lesser dose. Additional research to identify the optimal dose of arm rehabilitation is essential.
