المستخلص: Background: Lower Motor neuron facial palsy (Bell's palsy) is the most frequent cranial neuropathy and can originate from various kinds of damage to the seventh cranial nerve, including its motor nucleus , Bell's palsy can cause not only a distressing disfigurement of the face, but also impair the ability to communicate by facial expression and articulation Purpose: to investigate the effect of Kinesio Tape on face symmetry of Bell's palsy patients using Glasgow objective facial palsy scale and Sunnybrook facial grading system. Participants: Thirty patients with Bell's palsy were enrolled in this study. Methods: Participants were randomly assigned to one of the two groups; group A and group B. The group A received Kinesio Tap plus conventional physical therapy (Laser Therapy, Faradic stimulation and Motor Re- education), and group B received conventional physical therapy (Laser Therapy, Faradic stimulation and Motor Re- education) only. All patients were assessed at the beginning of the study and at end of the treatment. Results: A significant improvement on face symmetry in group A patients with Bell's palsy who received Kinesio tape compared to group B. (p<0.05). Conclusion: The study revealed that Kinesio tape showed a significant improvement in face symmetry of Bell's palsy, when the Kinesio tape was applied to patients with Bell's palsy. Kinesio tape should be considered a potential therapeutic modality at physical therapy clinic for patients with face asymmetry as Bell's palsy.
