Facial cupping has several benefits which include relaxing tight facial muscles, moving out stagnant lymph, fluids, and toxins to enhance the body’s natural healing ability. It can also increase blood flow and circulation and strengthen the vascular integrity of the face.
When treating cases of Bell’s palsy and Facial Paralysis, finding the root cause of the issue is paramount. The first part involves balancing the bodies nervous system, followed by direct treatment of the face.
