What is Botox for Migraine Pain Management?
Botox is an FDA-approved treatment for chronic migraine pain management. By injecting Botox into specific areas of the head and neck, the nerve signals that trigger migraines are blocked, reducing the frequency and severity of headaches. This treatment is highly effective for individuals suffering from chronic migraines (15 or more headache days per month).
This treatment is ideal for individuals seeking long-term relief from chronic migraine pain.
