| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to examine for change of sensory-motor area activity during observation of self-movement with a mirror box by using near-infrared spectroscopy and somatosensory evoked potentials. Motor imagery in observation of self-movement with a mirror box significantly increased SEP (N140) amplitude which is long latency component. The OXY-Hb concentration of contralateral sensory-motor area were significantly increased by observation of self-movement with a mirror box using near-infrared spectroscopy. We suggested that sensory-motor area were activated by using mirror box therapy.
