What are Trigger Point Injections?

Stress and tension can cause the muscles of your neck and back to become tight and form knots. The pain from this tightness can radiate to your scalp and head which may develop into a migraine. The migraine is the result of stress induced tension.  Trigger point injections may be able to relieve your stress induced migraines. Injections of lidocaine are administered into the trigger points of the back and neck. This helps address the pain sensation and give your muscles a chance to calm down by inactivating pain receptors. Discuss therapy with one of our caring providers. A specialized treatment plan will be developed just for you. Treatment may consist of a combination of therapies.
