Details and patient eligibility

About

Mental practice (both in isolation and also in combination with real practice) has been shown to improve somatosensory and motor variables but so far no study has taken it into the study of women's health. Through the present study the investigators want to offer some interesting data regarding the effectiveness of mental practice combined with physical practice.
