Bell's palsy is defined as sudden unilateral paresis of facial nerve of unknown aetiology, although there is often in the background anamnestic information about a previously cured viral or bacterial infection. It is characterized by an abrupt onset that marks the loss of function of the mimic muscles, which is primarily an aesthetic problem that can later progress into a functional problem such as loss of the sense of taste, increased lacrimation, or hearing disorders. Treatment should start as early as possible to speed up the recovery from the recovered paresis and in the acute phase the most common choice is pharmacological therapy with corticosteroids. In 70% of cases, it resolves spontaneously, and no additional interventions are needed, but if this is not the case, various physiotherapy methods are used. Although there is no solid evidence of their effect in the literature, they are used in clinical practice because they do not have a harmful effect and improve the effectiveness of the entire therapy. Physiotherapy procedures that are most often used to treat Bell's palsy are massage, electrostimulation, kinesitherapy, acupuncture, laser and their combinations.
