Ultrasound Guided Injection Therapies for Migraine:

When appropriate, in-office procedures may be used to reduce peripheral nerve irritation and muscular contributors to headache.

May include:

• Greater occipital nerve blocks
• Trigger point injections
• Perineural injection therapy

These therapies aim to reduce pain sensitivity, decrease muscle tension, and calm irritated nerve pathways. They are often used alongside rehabilitation and strengthening strategies.
