Botox Injected in Head ‘trigger Point’ Shown to Reduce Migraine Crises

ScienceDaily (May 11, 2011) — Scientists at the University of Granada have confirmed that injecting a local anesthetic or botulinum toxin (botox) into certain points named "trigger points" of the pericraneal and neck muscles reduce migraine frequency among migraine sufferers. University of Granada researchers have identified the location of these trigger points -which activation results in migraine- and their relationship with the duration and severity of this condition.

  1. I've recently heard about a person that had botox for migraines at home after watching a tutorial...In my opinion that's crazy because no one besides a doctor can determine where and how much botox must be injected into this sensitive area.
    When I decided to have botox in Toronto I chose the best clinic because even if this treatment seems to be very easy there are some risks that can be avoided if you choose the right doctor.
