Therapeutic Treatments
Experience relief from chronic conditions with our therapeutic neuromodulator treatments.
TMJ Pain Relief
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders can cause significant jaw pain, headaches, and difficulty chewing. Our therapeutic neuromodulator treatments target and relax the overactive jaw muscles that contribute to TMJ pain. By reducing muscle tension, we can provide significant relief from discomfort and improve jaw function. Dr. Nash will work closely with your referring dentist to develop the most effective treatment plan for your specific TMJ condition, ensuring comprehensive care and optimal results. Most patients experience noticeable improvement within 1-2 weeks of treatment, with results lasting 3-4 months.
Collaborative Care for TMJ Disorders
At 1-to-1 Aesthetics and Wellness, we understand that effective TMJ treatment often requires a multidisciplinary approach. Dr. Nash works closely with referring dentists, orthodontists, and other specialists to ensure comprehensive care for your TMJ condition.
This collaborative approach allows us to address both the muscular components of TMJ disorders through neuromodulator treatments and any dental or structural issues that may be contributing to your symptoms.
Our Collaborative Process:
- Consultation with your referring dentist to understand your complete treatment history
- Coordination of treatment timing to complement dental interventions such as splints or orthodontic adjustments
- Shared progress updates to ensure all providers are informed about your response to treatment
- Adjustments to your treatment plan based on feedback from all healthcare providers involved in your care
Migraine Relief
For chronic migraine sufferers, neuromodulator treatments can be life-changing. By targeting specific muscle groups in the forehead, temples, and neck, these injections can reduce both the frequency and severity of migraine attacks. The treatment works by blocking pain pathways and reducing muscle tension that can trigger migraines. Dr. Nash will work closely with your referring physician to develop a personalized treatment plan that complements your existing migraine management strategies. Many patients report a significant decrease in migraine days per month, allowing them to enjoy a better quality of life with fewer medications.
Comprehensive Migraine Management
Migraines are more than just headaches—they're complex neurological events that can significantly impact quality of life. Dr. Nash offers FDA-approved neuromodulator treatments specifically designed to prevent chronic migraines before they start.
Collaborative Care Approach
We understand that effective migraine management often requires a multidisciplinary approach. Dr. Nash works collaboratively with your referring neurologist, primary care physician, or headache specialist to ensure your neuromodulator treatments are integrated with your overall migraine management plan.
This coordinated approach may include:
- Consultation with your referring physician about your migraine history and previous treatments
- Coordination with medication management prescribed by your primary physician
- Treatment timing that complements other therapies you may be receiving
- Progress updates shared with your healthcare team
- Adjustments to your treatment protocol based on your response and feedback from all providers
How Neuromodulator Treatment Works:
Our migraine treatment protocol involves administering small amounts of neuromodulator to multiple areas around the head and neck. These injections work in two important ways:
- Blocking pain signals: The treatment prevents the release of chemicals involved in pain transmission
- Relaxing trigger muscles: By relaxing specific muscles that may compress or irritate nerves, the treatment reduces migraine triggers
Treatment Protocol:
The FDA-approved protocol for chronic migraine includes 31 injections across seven specific muscle areas. These typically include:
- Forehead and temples
- Bridge of the nose
- Back of the head (occipital region)
- Neck and upper shoulders
What to Expect:
The treatment session takes approximately 15-20 minutes. Most patients describe the injections as causing minimal discomfort—like tiny pinpricks. There's no downtime, and you can return to normal activities immediately after treatment.
Results typically develop over 7-10 days following treatment. For optimal results, treatments are typically administered every 12 weeks (about 4 times per year). Many patients report:
- Fewer migraine days per month
- Reduced intensity of migraines when they do occur
- Decreased need for rescue medications
- Improved ability to function during migraine episodes
Insurance Coverage:
Many insurance plans cover neuromodulator treatments for chronic migraine when medically necessary. Although we are not In-Network with commercial insurance carriers, we will provide you with a Statement of Services Provided and amounts paid for you to submit to your insurance for reimbursement.
Patient Experience:
"After suffering from debilitating migraines for over a decade, I was desperate for relief. Dr. Nash's migraine protocol has reduced my migraine days from 15+ per month to just 3-4, and they're much less severe. I can finally plan activities without fear of canceling due to a migraine. This treatment has given me my life back."

Hyperhidrosis Treatment
Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) can be embarrassing and disruptive to daily life. Our neuromodulator treatments effectively block the nerve signals that stimulate sweat glands, significantly reducing perspiration in treated areas. This approach is particularly effective for underarm sweating. Results typically last 6-12 months, allowing patients to enjoy improved comfort and confidence.
Understanding Hyperhidrosis
Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterized by excessive sweating beyond what's needed for normal temperature regulation. This condition can affect specific areas of the body (focal hyperhidrosis) or the entire body (generalized hyperhidrosis).
Common Areas Treated:
- Axillary hyperhidrosis (underarms) - The most commonly treated area
- Palmar hyperhidrosis (palms of hands) - Can interfere with daily activities and cause social anxiety
- Plantar hyperhidrosis (soles of feet) - Can lead to foot odor and increased risk of fungal infections
- Craniofacial hyperhidrosis (face and scalp) - Can be particularly embarrassing in social situations
Our Treatment Approach:
Dr. Nash uses precisely administered neuromodulator injections to block the release of acetylcholine, the chemical messenger that stimulates sweat glands. This treatment is:
- Minimally invasive - Quick procedure with tiny injections
- Highly effective - Most patients experience 80-95% reduction in sweating
- Long-lasting - Results typically last 6-12 months
- Low risk - Few side effects and no downtime
What to Expect:
During your treatment, Dr. Nash will administer a series of small injections into the affected area. The procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Most patients begin to notice reduced sweating within 2-4 days, with maximum effect achieved within 2 weeks.
Patient Experience:
"After years of struggling with excessive underarm sweating that ruined my clothes and caused constant embarrassment, I finally found relief with Dr. Nash's hyperhidrosis treatment. The procedure was quick and virtually painless, and the results have been life-changing. I no longer worry about sweat stains or avoid wearing certain colors. I wish I had done this years ago!"
