Bell Palsy Clinical Trial
Official title:
Comparison of Mime Therapy and Motor Imagery Technique on Facial Disability in Bell's Palsy.
Bell's palsy, characterized by unilateral paralysis/paresis of facial muscles, is a condition with a significant impact on individuals' lives. It was first identified by scientist Sir Charles Bell, and its sudden onset can lead to social, psychological, and emotional distress. Left untreated, Bell's palsy can have long-lasting effects on a patient's quality of life, including loss of facial muscle control, emotional stress, and communication difficulties. Rehabilitation protocols encompass various physical therapy techniques, among which Mime therapy and Motor imagery technique have shown promise.
While rehabilitation protocols have shown promise in enhancing facial muscle control, reducing disability, and preventing long-term complications, there remains a critical gap in the literature regarding the comparative effectiveness of various rehabilitation techniques. Currently, there is limited empirical evidence to guide healthcare professionals in selecting the most suitable rehabilitation approach for individual patients. The purpose of this study is to address this gap in knowledge by comparing two specific rehabilitation techniques: Mime therapy and Motor imagery technique. Understanding which of these rehabilitation techniques is more effective can significantly influence clinical practice and patient care. By conducting a systematic comparison, this study aims to provide evidence-based recommendations to healthcare professionals in selection of appropriate rehabilitation protocol for Bell's palsy patients. ;
