Synkinesis means the development of linked or unwanted facial movements. It is common and occurs in the majority of people who are recovering from prolonged facial palsy. For a bespoke exercise plan you will need guidance from a specialist therapist. The videos in this set demonstrate stretches and massage techniques which may be helpful. They should not be done by anyone who has had their facial palsy less than 3 months. Please listen carefully to the instructions.

it trully is important to do it everyday... the ones on the cheek are the most painful ones... im used to it know but at first it was so painful that it would make me cry.... but i knew i had to do it... For everyone who is dealing with bells palsy, dont freak out and do your stretches...

i am most appreciative of the videos.. i had bell's palsy when I was 37 weeks pregnant, Nov 24 2015.. I was flaccid for 1.5 months. Now at 7+ months I have been feeling synkinesis and i have lost hope. I am a physical therapist and have tried ES, massage, heating and exercises daily for 2 months, then 2xwk until just ocassional massage and exercise. I lost hope.. and this gives me HOPE today. Thank you VERY MUCH God Bless you!
