Summary

The goal of this case-control study is to assess the impact of a novel method which adapts shaping activities into mirror therapy to improve dexterity, reaction time, and motor learning of the non-dominant hand in healthy individuals. The main question it aims to answer is:

Does the use of Shaping Method as a protocol in Mirror Therapy will have an enhancing effect on upper extremity motor skills, motor learning and reaction time in healthy individuals.

The objective of this study is to compare the intervention group, which will undergo shaping method activities in accordance with the protocol set out in Mirror Therapy, with the control group. This will enable an assessment of the impact of this approach on dexterity, reaction time and motor learning of the non-dominant hand in healthy individuals.

Participants in intervention group will:

* Use the Shaping Method activities with mirror therapy for 4 weeks.
* Come to the exercise lab 2 times a week for 4 weeks.
* Participate in assessment tests at the beginning and end of the intervention period.

Participants in control group will:

* Take assessment tests twice, four weeks apart.
* Maintain their daily routine for the duration of their participation in the study.
