Clinical Trial Summary

Bell's palsy, also called idiopathic facial paralysis, is a common cause of unilateral facial paralysis. It is one of the most common neurological disorders of the cranial nerves.


Clinical Trial Description

Bell's palsy is an alarming condition of rapid onset, which paralyzes half of the facial muscles. Kabat rehabilitation is a manual resistance technique that promotes a basic pattern of movement through facilitation, inhibition, and resistance of a group of muscles. It increases the functioning and power of facial muscles while Mime therapy results in immediate improvement of function and integrity of facial muscles. It also mitigates synkinesis in Bell's palsy. Both techniques are easy to apply. They are clinically important techniques that are easily understood by patients. ;
