Clinical Trial Summary

Bells palsy is a sudden paralysis of half of the facial muscle. The BP is idiopathic and 70% responds well with drug therapy. There are many complementary therapies such as , tapping, electrical stimulation, and massage that adds to the recovery of condition. However, efficacy of neural mobilization in BP is not reported in the scientific literature.


Clinical Trial Description

Bells Palsy responds well with drug therapy such as prednisolone and antiviral drugs for the duration of 10-12 days. However, the administration of these drugs produce adverse side effect. Therapist use a number of techniques to maintain the physiological properties of facial muscles. However, adding a new technique would add to the arsenal of techniques available for the therapist. The research is intended to determine the effect of adding Neural mobilization in the recovery of Bells Palsy. A randomized controlled trail is intended to include 60 participants divided into two groups. Experimental group will receive Neural Mobilization with conservative treatment and control group will receive conservative treatment only. ;
