Question
Facial Paralysis Self-Massage Treatment Methods?
Answer
Patients with facial paralysis need to be carefully examined by a professional doctor before any predictions can be made. Self-administering facial treatments based solely on symptoms or without a confirmed diagnosis is not recommended. Although facial paralysis can be treated with massage and physical therapy, such as cold compresses, to improve regional blood circulation and aid in recovery, both methods are applicable. The massage technique mainly involves gently massaging along the skin texture and muscle contours in a clockwise direction, or counter-clockwise, or visiting the rehabilitation department of a hospital for professional rehabilitation massage by a doctor specializing in rehabilitation.
