34 hemiplegic patients were randomly assigned in Constraint – Induced Therapy and Progressive Resistive Exercise groups. Both groups were assessed before and after the intervention. Pinch and grip strengths, abductor and extensor muscle isometric strengths were measured by dynamometer. In addition, dexterity was evaluated by Minnesota manual dexterity test. Patients were under treatment for 6 weeks. The unaffected upper limb was restrained in CIT group, for five days a week (5 hours a day). In PRE group, progressive loads were applied along with improvement of strengths in patients.
