Description
English: A diagrammatic explanation of the mirror box. The patient places the good limb into one side of the box (in this case the right hand) and the amputated limb into the other side. Due to the mirror, the patient sees a reflection of his good hand where his or her missing limb should be (indicated in lower contrast). The patient thus receives artificial visual feedback that the "resurrected" limb is now moving when he or she moves the good hand.
