Summary

This study aims to compare the effects of mental imagery and virtual reality training with virtual reality alone on lower limb functional status of stroke patients. The study will be a randomized controlled trial. After the initial evaluation randomization will be done on participants lying under the eligibility criteria. Randomized participants will be allocated to Control \& Experimental groups. Mental imagery (Audiotape recordings of some specific tasks for lower limb functions) with Virtual reality training given to experimental group while Virtual reality training alone to Control group. Task oriented training for balance \& gait as baseline treatment will be given to each group.
