Why us?

We have extensive experience treating facial paralysis. As practitioners of cosmetic and facial rejuvenation acupuncture, we bring an added edge to this work, allowing us to needle the face precisely and comfortably. We do this regularly, using facial motor points and sub-muscular needling. We often see improvement within the first few sessions, especially when treatment begins early. Chronic cases can still benefit from consistent care. We also treat related conditions such as TMJ and trigeminal neuralgia in the clinic.
We use electro acupuncture techniques for facial paralysis and Bell's Palsy. By placing needles near the facial nerves, we help re-establish the connection to the facial muscles. This can improve facial muscle mobility, reduce tightness, promote blood flow to affected nerve pathways, and calm the nervous system to reduce stress related triggers.If you're looking for natural relief and expert care, we're here for you. Book your Bell's Palsy acupuncture session today and take the first step toward restoring your smile and function.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM TREATMENT

This may be followed by gua sha to increase circulation. Treatment runs approximately 45 minutes to one hour. We're based in Currumbin Waters on the Gold Coast and see clients from Tugun, Palm Beach, Coolangatta, and Tweed Heads.
Electro-acupuncture releases tight facial muscles and moves stagnant lymph, fluid, and toxins to support the body's natural healing process. It also increases blood flow and strengthens vascular integrity in the face. When treating Bell's Palsy and facial paralysis, finding the root cause matters most.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How many sessions will I need?
This depends on the severity of your condition and how early treatment begins. Some clients notice improvement within the first few sessions, others need a longer course. We'll give you a clearer picture after your first appointment.

Is facial acupuncture painful?
No. We regularly perform facial needling as part of our cosmetic acupuncture work, so we're experienced at treating the face comfortably and precisely.

Do you treat other facial or jaw conditions?
Yes. We also treat TMJ, jaw pain, and trigeminal neuralgia in the clinic.
How does acupuncture help with Bell's Palsy?
Acupuncture stimulates the facial nerve and surrounding muscles to support nerve recovery, reduce inflammation, and restore muscle function. We use electro acupuncture alongside facial cupping and gua sha to support circulation and recovery.

How soon after diagnosis should I start acupuncture?
Starting treatment early gives the best chance of a strong response, though chronic cases can still benefit from consistent care. If you've recently been diagnosed, booking in as soon as possible is worthwhile.
