Episode 14: Botox for Migraines
A Therapeutic Use for Neuromodulators
In this podcast episode, Dr. Teri Fisher focuses on the therapeutic use of Botox for migraines. While many of us know Botox as a cosmetic treatment for wrinkles, it has a whole range of other uses, and for those who suffer from chronic migraines, Botox can be a game changer. Studies have shown that Botox can have a significant impact on reducing the frequency and severity of migraines, and for those who experience chronic migraines, Botox treatments may be an option worth exploring. Dr. Fisher delves into the science behind how Botox works, leading to reduced muscle tension and inflammation in the head and neck. The PREEMPT study protocol is also discussed, which details the specific locations on the head and neck where Botox injections are typically administered to treat migraines. If you or someone you know is suffering from migraines and would like to know more about Botox as a treatment option, this podcast provides a wealth of information on the topic.
