OPT has an extensive protocol and we get results
Bell’s palsy may be a reaction to a viral infection that causes the nerve to become inflamed and damaged. This, in turn, causes partial or full paralysis to the muscles of the face on the same side. The face on that side began to droop due to loss of motor function to these muscles. There is also loss of control of the lips, nose and eye movement where the eyes stay open and began to dry out. Speech and tastes can also be affected by this condition. It can also result in hypersensitivity to hearing in the ear on the same side making it difficult for you to tolerate loud noises or in turn become deaf in the ear.
While Bell’s palsy can get better without treatment, physical therapy can help prevent muscles from permanently contracting. Physical therapies, such as exercise, laser therapy, electrical stimulation, and massage therapy, are used to hasten recovery, improve facial function and minimize sequelae.
If you are experiencing facial palsy, DO NOT HESITATE, THE LONGER YOUR WAIT THE LESS LIKELY YOU ARE TO REGAIN MOVEMENT TO YOUR FACE. Request a free screening at Optimum Physio Therapies in San Antonio, TX today.
