Summary

Currently, physicians have several options in addressing the anatomic and physiologic sequela of facial paralysis. However, strategies to address the psychologic and coping ability for patients have not been investigated.

The goal is to investigate the effect of mindfulness meditation on social functioning in patients with facial paralysis. This study will also explore whether increasing social functioning in patients with facial paralysis will improve overall quality of life. These questions will be answered using a randomized controlled trial.
