Post-stroke rehabilitation is a patient-centered, goal-driven process that attempts to maximize the functional independence of patients. The purpose of the study is to show the effectiveness of Hand-arm bimanual intensive therapy and Motor imagery technique to improve upper limb function in post stroke patients. The aim of the study to compare the effectiveness of Hand-arm bimanual intensive therapy (HABIT) and Motor imagery technique to improve upper limb function in post stroke subjects.

Methods: this is a quasi Experimental study with 30 patients who met inclusion criteria were to be recruited for the study by purposive random sampling method; they were divided into two groups. Group A and Group B consists of 15 subjects .Subjects in Group A receives Hand-Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy. Group B receives Motor Imagery.
