Our specialists utilize EMG technology to ensure accurate placement and minimize discomfort. Botulinum injections are proven to significantly improve the pain, tightness and disfiguring muscle contractions of:
- Cervical dystonia
- Segmental dystonia of arms, legs, neck or trunk
- Writer's cramp
- Blepharospasm, hemifacial spasm and Meige syndrome
- Tremor
Additional uses for botulinum injections
Botulinum injections are also extremely effective in the treatment of excessive saliva production, drooling or sweating. Our movement disorders specialists use ultrasound imaging to guide injections for optimal results.
The lasting effect of botulinum injections
The medication is injected directly into the affected muscles or glands, avoiding the side effects of oral medications. Benefits may last three months or longer. With quarterly examinations and adjustments to the therapy plan, benefits can last for years.
