Trigger points are tight, painful knots that develop in muscles, often referring pain to other areas of the body. IPC treats myofascial pain with targeted injections and advanced techniques including Botox therapy for chronic migraine.
These procedures are designed to release muscle tension, interrupt pain cycles, and restore normal muscle function. Our specialists carefully identify trigger points and deliver precise treatment for maximum benefit.
If you suffer from chronic muscle pain, tension headaches, or fibromyalgia-related discomfort, our trigger point and soft tissue treatments can provide meaningful relief.
APPOINTMENTS
Trigger point injections deliver local anesthetic (and sometimes corticosteroid) directly into myofascial trigger points — painful knots of contracted muscle fibers that can cause localized pain and referred pain to distant areas. The injection relaxes the taut muscle band and interrupts the pain cycle.
Conditions treated include myofascial pain syndrome, tension headaches (trapezius and cervical trigger points), fibromyalgia, chronic neck and back muscle pain, and referred pain patterns from active trigger points.
You may feel a brief "twitch response" when the needle enters the trigger point — this confirms accurate targeting. Best results come from a series of injections combined with stretching and physical therapy.
Learn MoreBotulinum toxin (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) is used therapeutically in pain management to relax overactive muscles, block pain neurotransmitters, and treat chronic migraine. In pain medicine, Botox is injected at specific anatomical sites for FDA-approved and evidence-based indications beyond its cosmetic use.
Conditions treated include chronic migraine (FDA-approved: 15+ headache days per month), cervical dystonia, chronic myofascial pain unresponsive to trigger point injections, piriformis syndrome, and spasticity-related pain.
For chronic migraine, 31 injections are administered across 7 specific head and neck muscle areas following the FDA-approved PREEMPT protocol. Each treatment cycle lasts approximately 12 weeks.
