Has anyone used dry needling for Bells Palsy and if so, when in the recovery and what points?

Hi Anne! If you search within the forum, we have many posts on dry needling and Bells Palsy. I encourage you to do a search to see our various answers. I use dry needling with patients throughout the healing journey, immediately after onset and weeks/months down the road. In our advanced class, we teach the facial nerve distribution needling. For a foundations-trained student, I would look at the trigeminal nerve distribution, symptomatic points within the facial muscles (bilaterally secondary to compensation), and then the cervical spine homeostatic/paravertebral/symptomatic points as they are relevant in within your assessment. Thank you!
