How Xeomin Neurotoxin Therapy in Pensacola, Florida can help you

In people with cervical dystonia, nerve signals tell the muscles to contract when they shouldn't. This can lead to abnormal head positions, uncomfortable movement, and pain. XEOMIN helps block these signals. This helps decrease muscle activity and neck pain. Some muscles may still contract, but less severely.
