The intensity of mirror movements decreased in both hands after 2 weeks of Hand and Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy Including Lower Extremity (HABIT-ILE) training. Mirror movement changes were maintained at the 3-month follow-up after HABIT-ILE. Mirror movement changes were associated with improvements in bimanual performance and activities of daily living.
