Exercises for Facial Twitching?

by Anonymous

I have had a life long facial twitch that has increased as I got older. This twitch causes me to bite my lip hard and my face twitches as well. I have just had dental work which included a temporary bridge until the healing is complete for the permanent one to be placed.

During this time I have broken one from biting too hard so far and I can't seem to stop biting in that area ( front tooth bridge). I was recently on some medication to slow it down a bit. But the medication causes anxiety attacks and I feel tired all the time. My question is are there any Chinese therapeutic exercises that can be done to begin to get control of the muscles in the face? I want to stay off meds.

Facial Twitching
by: Matthew

Hi, it's difficult to recommend anything for facial twitching without knowing more about your particular condition and without being able to see you.

While acupressure on specific points on the face may help relieve facial twitching, acupuncture and/or Chinese herbal medicine will be better as they will address the underlying cause which, in Traditional Chinese Medicine, is usually a liver imbalance.

Have you tried acupuncture or Chinese medicine before? If not I suggest you arrange a face to face consultation with a practitioner of traditional Chinese acupuncture or Chinese herbal medicine. He/she will diagnose your condition according to traditional Chinese medical principles and also let you know which treatment(s) will be best for you.

If you have questions about acupuncture or Chinese herbal medicine I'd be happy to help.

All the best.
