Introduction[edit | edit source]

Action Observation (AO) is a dynamic state during which the observer can understand what the other is doing by simulating the actions and outcomes that are likely to follow from the observed motor act.[1]

Action Observation Therapy (AOT) is a top down approch and is grounded in basic neuroscience and the recent discovery of the mirror neuron system (MNS)[2][3]. AOT commonly includes action observation and action execution and allows patients to safely practice movements and motor tasks.[3]
