摘要:Introduction : There are different ways of functional retraining following Bells Palsy but till date no specific guidelines with appropriate
dosage & sequence have been given.
Aims & Objectives : To study & compare the efficacy of Functional Dynamic taping protocol/Technique over Conventional treatment technique/
protocol in Bells Palsy.
Methodology : 30 Subjects with a diagnosis of Bells Palsy of non-traumatic onset were taken. The baseline evaluation was done for motor,
sensory component, & functional activities. They were divided into two groups namely group A & group B. In Group A, Functional Dynamic
Taping Protocol & in Group B, Conventional treatment method was used. Re-evaluation was done after 8 weeks.
Results : Statistical analysis was done & P value (< .05) was found to be significant for group A.
Conclusion : VM Functional Dynamic taping protocol is more effective for functional retraining than conventional treatment in subjects with
Bells Palsy.
