NEUROMODULATORS – Therapeutic
When people think about Neuromodulators like Botox, Nucevia, and Dysport, they often think of the cosmetic aspects of them – smoothing lines and diminishing wrinkles. In truth, Neuromodulators are a versatile treatment used for a number of different issues and concerns.
HOW DO NEUROMODULATORS WORK?
At Sage Spa, our nurse injector, Candyce Bell, RN, uses different brands of Neuromodulators to relax muscles. These injections help prevent chemical signals from reaching the nerves controlling your muscles. In the case of Therapeutic Neuromodulators, we are looking to block nerve impulses that cause muscles to contract which is what leads to our clients’ pain, tension, and headaches.
WHAT TO EXPECT WITH THIS TREATMENT?
Therapeutic Neuromodulators are a relatively quick and easy with each session typically lasting around twenty minutes. Results of the treatment can last two to four months. This is a non-surgical service that allows clients a welcome relief from a life of tension, pain, and annoying muscle spasms.
WHAT DOES THERAPEUTIC NEUROMODULATORS TREAT?
This type of treatment is used to treat a wide variety of conditions that affect nerves and muscles. It can help with TMJ disorders as well. Here are a few examples:
TESTIMONIAL:
I think Nurse Candyce has changed my life. I have been suffering with debilitating neck and shoulder pain for the last 2 years. It started with a bulging disk injury, and unfortunately my body began ‘protecting’ my neck, and it snowballed into extreme muscular strain and tension, which is only exacerbated by stress. The tension and strain leads to near continuous headaches and impacts my mood throughout the day (as it flares up, i can become more irritable and find it difficult to focus).
Yesterday Candyce performed botox injections throughout my neck and trapezius muscles, and this morning I woke up with a clear head (no headache) and visually reduced lumps/knots in my neck. The pain relief has been immediate and I’m very much looking forward to the next few days as the botox continues to settle into the muscles.
THANK YOU Candyce!! I’m just so happy to finally have a tool in my toolbox to help cope with this issue!
I’d been experiencing headaches behind my right eye for a couple years. The last year the headaches were more persistent and the muscle above my eye was constantly engaged and rarely relaxed. It had caused my right eyebrow to constantly be lifted. I was reluctant to do Botox. So glad I finally decided to try. My pain behind my eye is gone. My eyebrow relaxed. It’s made a huge difference in my day to day. I’d highly recommend Candyce and the sage team. Very knowledgeable. Thank you
