TMJ / Head and Neck Pain, Headache Treatment with Botox and Trigger Point Injections
Chronic jaw tension, facial pain, and persistent headaches are often signs of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. These symptoms can disrupt your daily life, affect sleep, and contribute to head, neck, and shoulder discomfort. At our practice, we offer therapeutic treatment using Botox and trigger point injections to relieve these symptoms effectively.
How Botox Relieves TMJ Symptoms
Botox can be injected into targeted facial and jaw muscles to reduce excessive clenching and tension. It works by temporarily relaxing overactive muscles, easing discomfort and restoring jaw mobility. Many patients experience relief within days, with results lasting several months.
About Trigger Point Injections
Trigger point injections are used to treat tight, painful muscle knots that contribute to tension headaches and referred pain. These injections deliver medication directly into the affected muscles, helping to reduce inflammation and restore normal function. They are especially effective for patients who suffer from chronic head and neck pain not relieved by other therapies.
Comprehensive Pain Management Approach
Our treatment plans are personalized based on the severity of symptoms and areas affected. Combining Botox with trigger point therapy can offer long-lasting relief for patients with TMJ-related pain, migraines, and facial muscle tension. If you’re struggling with chronic discomfort, schedule a consultation to see if this approach is right for you.
