Facial paralysis, a condition that can manifest itself through pain, muscle tension, asymmetry in facial movements and difficulties such as closing one eye, requires specialised care. At Integrativa, we stand out as a reference centre for the treatment of facial paralysis in Portugal. Our team is made up of physiotherapists who are internationally recognised as specialists in this area, based on the latest scientific evidence.
In Portugal, physiotherapy dedicated to recovery from facial paralysis is still in its infancy. The complex physiology of the face requires a differentiated approach. Unfortunately, common practices such as the use of ice, rapid movements and inappropriate exercises can be detrimental to recovery. Physiotherapy specialising in the treatment and recovery of Facial Paralysis has evolved and abolished these practices. If you've been using these methods and feel your face tightening, it's crucial to stop them to avoid complications.
At Integrativa, we offer innovative and pioneering treatment. We stand out for the following points:

Treatment Methodology in Integrative Facial Paralysis Physiotherapy
Stage 1: Evaluation
Our journey begins with a comprehensive assessment of your face. In this first session, our specialised physiotherapists diagnose the stage of paralysis you are in, identify your specific needs and give you the first indications to enhance the mobility of your face.
Stage 2: Intensive Treatment
In this phase, we focus on improving facial asymmetry at rest, increasing the mobility of facial tissues and starting to reduce involuntary contractions (synkinesis) or, if they already exist, we teach you how to minimise their action.
Stage 3: Maintaining Gains and Preparing for Discharge
We focus the treatment on maintaining the gains made and preparing for discharge, ensuring that the results achieved last over time.
At Integrativa, we are committed to providing excellent treatment, taking into account the particularities of Facial Paralysis with a personalised and up-to-date approach, with the aim of achieving an effective and lasting recovery.
