Introduction: Bell’s palsy (BP) is a loss of facial movement due to nerve damage. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the physiopathology of BP is external Wind-Cold attacking the channels of the face. Purpose: To demonstrate which are the energy alterations on the chakras energy centers on patients with Bell’s palsy and the results of the treatment using TCM tools. Methods: Three case reports of patients with Bell’s palsy. All with history of developing Bell’s palsy after exposure to Cold and Wind. They received measurement of the chakras, and in all the cases, they had no energy in all seven chakras. The treatment was recommendation to avoid exposure to Cold and Wind, Chinese dietary counselling, acupuncture, and treatment for the chakras with homeopathy medication according to the theory of the author entitled Constitutional Homeopathy of the Five Elements based on Traditional Chinese Medicine and crystal-based medications. Results: All patients presented improvement of the Bell’s palsy, restoring nerve function, besides improving the ability of the patients to close their eyes and improvement of the well-being, self-esteem and emotional state. Conclusion: In this study, it was concluded that patients with Bell’s palsy have an energy deficiency on the chakras centers that make them more prone to invasion of Wind and Cold, due to weakened energy, leading, in this case, to the formation of Bell’s palsy. In this study, TCM tools were used for restoring the function of the facial nerves and muscles and rebalancing all the energy of the patients (Yin, Yang, Qi and Blood and chakras energy). The use of high-concentrated medication, such as corticosteroids, normally used in Western medicine treatment, may harm the vital energy of the patients even more, worsening or maintaining the condition of energy imbalance, and therefore, Bell’s palsy.
