How Does Botox Stop Headaches, TMD and Migraines?
Migraines, tension headaches and TMD are initiated by the pericranial muscles squeezing bloodvessels and nerve endings inside these muscles. All existing treatments work in part by relaxing the muscles. These include Botox which is a muscle relaxant, migraine medications which are pharmaceutical muscle relaxants, surgical incision of the muscles around major nerves and bloodvessels, and dental splints which prevent the muscles contracting. In other words there may be no therapeutic difference between the outcome of a splint and Botox injections.
