Summary

The good effects of using guided plasticity for a rehabilitative purpose in case of nerve damage have been shown, but a problem that has been presented is that some individuals find it difficult to assimilate these effects due to difficulties in carrying out abstract training or due to a lack of motivation. In early sensory training, the plasticity of the brain is used. Methods for early sensory training that have been described are: 1) mental imagery of touch (mental imagery), 2) observation of touch, 3) mirror training, 4) use of images for visualization of touch. The method needs to be developed and refined to be able to offer individual training plans in order to find a motivating and meaningful form of training.
