Botox

Botox injections are a minimally invasive treatment option for patients suffering from migraine headaches, spasticity, myofascial pain, back pain, neck pain, or neuropathy. Derived from the botulinum toxin, Botox is a purified protein that helps relax overactive and painful muscles.

While this injection procedure is most commonly known for its effect on wrinkles, it is also a highly effective pain therapy that can provide three to four months of pain relief. During the procedure, your physician will ask the patient to contact his or her muscles to help identify the treatment sites. After determining the locations for the Botox injection, the physician will administer the treatment.
