Virtual reality offers new hope for facial paralysis sufferers

NCT ID NCT05547152

First seen Jun 16, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether using virtual reality at home can help people with recent facial palsy (within the last year) reduce involuntary facial spasms called synkinesis. About 100 participants will either use a VR self-rehabilitation program or follow standard rehabilitation exercises. The goal is to see if VR improves muscle control and lessens painful spasms better than conventional therapy alone.
