Abstract

Spinal cord trauma (MRT) causes numerous functional limitations. Motor imagery (IM) is a technique used to improve motor function. Objective. To analyze the effects of MI associated with the Shapping Protocol on paretic upper limb functionality (MMSS) after TRM. Method. Case study with a tetraparetic individual after incomplete SCT, level C5. There were 12 IM sessions in MMSS and evaluation by Motor Activity Log (MAL) and Fugl Meyer Assessment. Results. There was a gain in the MMSS functionality in the Fugl Meyer Scale and Motor Activity Log. Conclusion. satisfactory results of MI were observed in the motor performance of MMSS in a tetraparetic individual after TRM.
