Discover relief from tension headaches with Botox treatments at the Bruxism Clinic
Tension Headache Treatment at the Bruxism Clinic
Tension headaches are one of the most common types of headaches, often characterized by a dull, aching pain around the forehead, temples, and back of the head. For many individuals, the root cause of tension headaches can be linked to muscle strain and tightness in the face, neck, and scalp, which may be worsened by bruxism (teeth grinding) and stress. At the Bruxism Clinic, we offer an innovative and effective treatment for tension headaches using Botox to target the underlying muscle tension.
Our experienced practitioners use precise techniques to inject Botox in key areas, including:
•Forehead: Tight muscles in the forehead can contribute to tension headaches. Injecting Botox into the forehead muscles helps to relax these muscles, reducing strain and relieving headache symptoms.
•Medial Brow: Botox injections in the medial brow area target the muscles between the eyebrows, which can often become tight due to stress or repetitive facial expressions, contributing to headache discomfort.
•Crow’s Feet (around the eyes): Muscle tension around the eyes can also trigger tension headaches. By administering Botox into the crow’s feet area, we can reduce muscle activity that may be contributing to headaches.

•Relieves Tension and Pressure: Botox relaxes the facial muscles that are contributing to tension, helping to reduce the frequency and intensity of headaches.
•Long-Lasting Results: A single Botox treatment typically provides relief for up to 3-4 months, making it an effective long-term solution for those who suffer from chronic tension headaches.
•Minimally Invasive: Botox injections are quick and require minimal downtime, making them a convenient option for patients looking for relief without the need for more invasive treatments.
•Additional Cosmetic Benefits: While the primary focus is headache relief, Botox injections in these areas can also soften fine lines and wrinkles, offering a dual benefit for patients concerned with both aesthetics and wellness.
Botox is well-known for its cosmetic benefits, but it’s also an FDA-approved treatment for chronic migraines and tension headaches. By carefully placing Botox injections into specific muscle groups in the face, we can help alleviate the tension and pressure that lead to headaches. Botox works by relaxing the overactive muscles responsible for causing discomfort, reducing muscle contraction, and decreasing the frequency and severity of headaches.

Botox is a suitable treatment for individuals who experience tension headaches due to muscle tightness in the forehead, brow, or around the eyes. If you suffer from frequent tension headaches that impact your quality of life and haven’t found relief with other treatments, Botox may be an effective option.

Tension headaches are often caused by muscle strain in the face, scalp, and neck due to stress, bruxism (teeth grinding), or poor posture. Botox helps by relaxing the overactive muscles responsible for the tension, reducing the frequency and severity of headaches.
Botox is injected into targeted areas like the forehead, medial brow, and crow’s feet to relax muscle activity. This reduction in muscle tension relieves pressure and discomfort that contribute to tension headaches.
Botox is typically injected into the forehead, between the eyebrows (medial brow), and around the eyes (crow’s feet). These areas are common sources of muscle tension that can lead to headaches.
Most patients begin to notice relief from tension headaches within 3-7 days after the treatment. Full effects are usually felt within two weeks, and the benefits can last for up to 3-4 months.
Botox treatment for tension headaches is quick, typically taking 15-30 minutes, and involves minimal downtime. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during Botox injections. The procedure involves very fine needles, and our clinicians can use numbing cream or ice to minimize any discomfort.
While some patients may experience relief after a single session, it is common to need repeated treatments every 3-4 months for ongoing tension headache relief. Your doctor will create a personalized treatment plan based on your symptoms.
Side effects are usually mild and may include temporary bruising, swelling, or redness at the injection site. In rare cases, patients may experience slight muscle weakness in the treated areas, but this typically resolves on its own.
Yes! In addition to relieving tension headaches, Botox can smooth fine lines and wrinkles in areas like the forehead, medial brow, and crow’s feet, offering aesthetic benefits along with headache relief.
Botox is a great option for individuals suffering from frequent tension headaches related to muscle tightness in the forehead, brow, or around the eyes. If you haven’t found relief with other treatments, or you’re looking for a minimally invasive solution, Botox may be right for you. Consult with our specialists to determine if you’re a good candidate.
