Completed
View on ClinicalTrials.gov →
Summary
One of the most common complications after breast cancer surgery is a functional limitation of the upper body. Up to 67% of breast cancer patients experience arm or shoulder impairment, including pain, numbness, loss of strength, and reduced ROM, after surgery. Graded motor imagery is effective in reducing pain interference with function using a graded sequence of strategies including left/right judgements (implicit motor imagery), imagined movements (explicit motor imagery) and mirror therapy.
