My wife is going to be taking botox treatments soon. She is chronic and has been for too many years. We are hoping that this will provide some relief. We have done a lot of research and everything seems real safe. They haven't done a lot of studies with botox and headaches so far but have noticed it helped headaches while using it in other applications. The treatment she will get includes two shots in the temple area and two in the back of the head (upper neck). It can be done numerous times (about 9% i think develop anti-bodies so it is not as effective on subsequent shots). It seems well worth it to us. We will keep you all posted as to how well it works
