Botox Injection
Dr. Miller offers Botox Injections as an effective treatment for chronic pain caused by muscle spasms, migraines, and other neurological conditions. This minimally invasive procedure uses botulinum toxin to temporarily block pain signals, providing relief for patients suffering from a variety of conditions related to muscle tension and nerve pain.
What Is a Botox Injection?
A Botox Injection involves the injection of botulinum toxin, a purified protein, into specific muscles or nerve sites to block pain signals. By relaxing muscles and reducing spasms, Botox helps alleviate chronic pain. This treatment is commonly used to manage conditions like chronic migraines, muscle spasticity, and TMJ-related pain.
Conditions Treated with Botox Injections
-
Chronic migraines (15 or more headache days per month)
-
Cervical dystonia (neck muscle spasms)
-
Myofascial pain syndrome
-
Muscle spasticity or tightness (post-stroke or neurological conditions)
-
Trigeminal neuralgia
-
TMJ dysfunction and jaw pain
-
Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)
What to Expect During the Procedure
Botox injections are performed in a clinical setting and typically take 15–30 minutes. Dr. Miller uses a fine needle to inject the medication into specific muscles or nerves based on your diagnosis. Most patients tolerate the procedure well, experiencing only mild discomfort during the injections.

You can resume most normal activities the same day. Relief may begin within a few days, with full effects typically noticeable in 1 to 2 weeks.
Is Botox Treatment Right for You?
Dr. Miller will assess your symptoms, medical history, and treatment goals to determine if Botox injections are an appropriate option. Whether you’re managing chronic migraines or muscle-related pain, Botox may be a safe and effective addition to your personalized care plan.
