Facial Therapy
Supporting people experiencing changes in facial movement, muscle tone and sensation through personalised neurological rehabilitation.
Facial Therapy
At Nicole Lavin Neurological Rehabilitation, facial therapy is designed to support people experiencing changes in facial movement, muscle tone, sensation or comfort as a result of neurological conditions or injury.
How We Can Help
Facial therapy can support people experiencing changes in facial movement, sensation, muscle tone or symmetry following a neurological condition or injury. Through gentle, specialist techniques, therapy aims to improve comfort, control and confidence in everyday facial movement.
Facial Therapy may help to:
- Improve facial muscle awareness and control
- Support symmetry and coordinated movement
- Reduce tightness, stiffness or discomfort
- Encourage relaxation in overactive muscles
- Build confidence with expression, speech and daily function
Our approach combines specialist neurological rehabilitation knowledge with gentle, targeted facial therapy techniques to help improve awareness, relaxation, symmetry and function.
A personalised neurological rehabilitation approach
Every person’s presentation is different. Your appointment will begin with a careful assessment of your facial movement, comfort, muscle tone, sensation and goals.
From there, therapy may include guided facial exercises, soft tissue techniques, relaxation strategies, movement retraining, sensory stimulation and advice to continue progress at home.
The aim is not only to support facial function, but to help you feel more comfortable, confident and in control.
Gentle, specialist and goal-focused care
Facial changes can affect everyday life in subtle but significant ways, from speaking and eating to expression, confidence and social interaction. At Nicole Lavin Neurological Rehabilitation, therapy is delivered with understanding, patience and clinical expertise.
We work with you at your pace, focusing on meaningful improvements that support daily life.
