Purpose of study: Mental Practice is a known documented technique for learning/reacquiring new motor skills. There are very few studies done in India to show the efficacy of mental practice in rehabilitation. This study was attempted to see if mental practice causes change in the neural tissue responsible for controlling hip muscles. Materials: Mentamove machine, weight cuffs to measure 1RM, stopwatch to denote unilateral stance time, book and a pen. Outcome measures: Unilateral stance test and 1RM of hip muscles were the outcome measures used in the assessment. Methodology: type of study – experimental type. Unilateral stance test of the dominant leg (left) and 1RM of left hip abductors and extensors of the healthy individual were recorded. Mentamove electrodes were placed on the skin over left hip extensors and abductors. 9 contractions were recorded in each mental practice session. 21 sessions of mental practice were given and a change in 1RM and unilateral stance time was noted. Results: On observational analysis it was seen that there was a significant gain in the unilateral stance time and also a change was noted in 1RM of left hip abductors and hip extensors, pre and post mental practice sessions. Conclusion: From our study it was concluded that the concept of mental practice lead to an increase in 1RM of hip extensors and hip abductors.
