Bell's palsy

This study tested a special laser device (Multiwave Locked System) on 84 adults with Bell's palsy that had lasted more than 8 weeks. Participants received laser treatment three times a week for six months. The goal was to see if the laser could improve facial movement and reduce …

This study tested whether adding gentle sensory stimulation (like light touch and tapping) to standard physical therapy could improve facial symmetry and function in people with facial palsy after a stroke. Thirty-six participants were split into two groups: one received both sen…

This study looked at whether different types of electrical stimulation during acupuncture (electroacupuncture) can help people with Bell palsy, a condition that causes sudden facial paralysis. Researchers treated 75 adults with low-frequency continuous or discontinuous waveforms …

This study tested two different electroacupuncture waveforms (continuous vs. intermittent) in 120 adults with Bell palsy, a condition causing sudden facial weakness. Participants had moderate to severe symptoms and had already taken standard steroid treatment. The goal was to see…

This study looked at 16 people with severe facial paralysis to see how their brains change after reconstructive surgery. Using a brain scanning technique called magnetoencephalography (MEG), researchers measured brain activity during facial movements and while recognizing emotion…

This study tested whether a device called MyotonPro can reliably measure the biomechanical properties of facial muscles in people with facial paralysis. Researchers compared it to standard electromyography (EMG) in 40 patients. The goal was to see if MyotonPro could be a useful t…
