Bell's palsy and TMJ dysfunction

We offer adapted rehabilitation for Bell's palsy (facial paralysis) and for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction, which affects the jaw.

What is it?

Bell's palsy is a sudden weakness on one side of the face, related to the facial nerve. The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects the jaw to the skull: when it does not work well, it can cause pain, clicking or difficulty opening the mouth.

In both cases, rehabilitation combines precise exercises, gentle manual techniques and advice for daily life (chewing, posture, managing tension).
