MUSCLE TIGHTNESS - STROKE, BRAIN INJURY, DYSTONIA

Abnormal muscle tightness can occur after various neurological injuries, including stroke, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury. This is commonly referred to as Spasticity. Or, this can occur in isolation such as Cervical Dystonia, a turning of the head and neck that is not under your control and can be quite painful.  Do you have abnormal tightness of muscles in the arm, leg, or neck? Did this occur after your stroke or brain injury? Does this trouble you, but you are unsure the cause? Schedule an appointment to come talk with us.  We offer botox treatments to reduce muscle spasm and allow for more useful function of the involved arm or leg, or to allow improved head positioning and to lessen pain.  We can also help figure out the cause if you are unsure; for example, we can perform nerve studies to diagnose the true cause. We also are knowledgeable about bracing, rehabilitation, and oral medications to treat these conditions.
