Understanding Bell’s Palsy

Bell's Palsy is a condition that occurs when the facial nerve becomes inflamed or compressed, leading to temporary facial paralysis or weakness. The exact cause is often unknown, though it's sometimes linked to viral infections. Symptoms can range from mild facial drooping to complete paralysis, along with pain, headaches, and difficulty closing one eye. While most cases resolve over time, chiropractic care can play a role in supporting nerve function and promoting faster recovery.

At Peak Chiropractic, we focus on gentle, non-invasive upper cervical adjustments that may relieve pressure on the facial nerve. This approach helps restore balance to your nervous system, encouraging your body to heal naturally.

Symptoms of Bell’s Palsy

  • Sudden weakness or paralysis on one side of the face
  • Difficulty closing one eye
  • Drooping mouth or eyelid
  • Loss of taste on the affected side
  • Facial pain or discomfort
  • Difficulty with facial expressions, such as smiling or frowning

Chiropractic care can help address these symptoms by reducing nerve pressure and improving nervous system function.

How Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care Can Help

Upper cervical chiropractic care targets the alignment of the top bones in your spine, particularly the atlas vertebra. Misalignments in this area can disrupt the flow of nerve signals throughout your body, potentially contributing to Bell's Palsy. By correcting these misalignments, we aim to restore proper nerve communication, reduce inflammation, and support your body's ability to recover from facial paralysis.

Our chiropractic team at Peak Chiropractic takes a personalized approach to every patient, using gentle adjustments to align your upper cervical spine and enhance overall nervous system function.

I am personally scared of being twisted and popped and that’s not part of their practice.
Peak Chiropractic is an amazing place. Jon and Kierra are very knowledgeable and friendly! They take the time to explain everything and make sure you’re well taken care of. They specialize in starting at the root of the cause and not over doing it. I am personally scared of being twisted and popped and that’s not part of their practice. They made me feel very comfortable and the recovery room is very comforting after the adjustment. I highly recommend Peak!

With a 3D imaging machine you visually can seen how out of align you are and then a plan of action to get you back to alignment
After dealing with migraines my whole life, then panic attacks and most recently vertigo, which is the absolute worst experience to go through. I was determined to find help and that is where I found Peak Chiropractic with Dr. John and Dr. Kyara. They are warm, welcoming and above all experts in the field of Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care. They walk you through the process step by step and with a 3D imaging machine you visually can seen how out of align you are and then a plan of action to get you back to alignment. The adjustments are gentle and precise. No cracking or extreme movement of the head, which I can't handle. The last time I saw a chiropractor the extreme movement of my head led me to vomit in the bathroom right after the appointment. Not the case at Peak Chiropractic! I am on a treatment plan that started in February and will go until July and that gives my neck time to adjust and heal and then hopefully maintenance after. I can't tell you how happy I am to finally feel better, sleep better. I don't have the wave of dizziness that I was having on the daily. I also suffer from panic attacks driving and that in itself is debilitating. Even though I came to Peak for migraine and vertigo issues, I had no idea how much it would help me in gaining back my confidence to drive. I no longer get in my car with the feeling of dread and panic. That in itself is life changing!! So thankful and grateful for the care I am receiving and the healing and recovery process. I highly recommend you take the time to get the help you need if suffering from migraines, vertigo or panic attacks. No reason to be miserable when you can get the help you need and through Amazing people like Dr. John and Dr. Kyara!

Was able to stand up straight for the first time in years, hip discomfort and shoulder pain were immediately relieved
After trying chiropractic treatments and months of physical therapy that produced little to no results we had about given up on the medical field. Fortunately Connie found Peak Chiropractic! After her first adjustment she had amazing results, she was able to stand up straight for the first time in years, hip discomfort and shoulder pain were immediately relieved which led me to quickly make an appointment. Range of motion in my neck was pretty much non-existent and after my first adjustment was tremendously improved! Connie and I both continue to see great improvements in our overall health and are amazed at our progress. It is definitely a journey well worth taking. Drs. John and Kyara are both very knowledgeable and professional with the added bonus of being wonderful and caring people, their passion to help is very evident in everything they do. Highly recommended, it is a life changing experience!
