Headache, migraine, & tmj pain relief

Question: Can Botox really Cure my chronic migraines?

Answer: Yes. Most people think of 90s actors in Hollywood with frozen faces when they hear the word Botox. The truth is, botulinum toxin has a proven track record for treating patients with chronic migraines and headaches, as well as those who suffer from moderate to severe clenching and grinding of teeth. Botox is safe and effective in treating these conditions when given by a trained professional.

Question: How does it work?

Answer: Botulinum toxin is given in small doses to overactive muscles in the head and neck that are the cause of migraines, tension headaches, clenching, and grinding. It does not completely inactivate the muscles, but instead simply reduces their activity to provide relief for the patient.

Question: How do I know if it is right for me?

Answer: Your provider will perform what is called a “trigger point” examination. This is done by applying light finger pressure to certain muscles of the head and neck that are known to play a role in triggering headaches, as well as oral and facial pain from clenching and grinding.
