Laser therapy is a cutting-edge treatment for bells palsy, a condition that causes paralysis of the facial muscles. While the exact cause of bells palsy is unknown, it is believed to be caused by inflammation of the facial nerve. Laser therapy works by reducing inflammation and promoting healing of the damaged nerve.
There are a number of studies that have shown the efficacy of laser therapy in treating bells palsy. In one study, patients who received laser therapy had a significantly higher rate of recovery than those who did not receive treatment. Another study found that laser therapy was more effective than corticosteroid injections in reducing symptoms of bells palsy.
Laser therapy is a safe and effective treatment for bells palsy. It has been shown to be more effective than other traditional treatments, and it has no significant side effects. If you are suffering from bells palsy, laser therapy may be an option worth considering.
