At APICO Pain and Wellness, Dr. Rany Abdallah provides Occipital Nerve Blocks to treat chronic headaches, including migraines, tension headaches, and occipital neuralgia. This targeted procedure involves injecting a local anesthetic—and sometimes a corticosteroid—near the greater and/or lesser occipital nerves located at the base of the skull.
By blocking these nerves, the treatment interrupts pain signals and reduces inflammation, offering fast and lasting relief. Performed in-office with minimal discomfort, occipital nerve blocks can significantly reduce headache frequency and intensity. Dr. Abdallah’s precise, image-guided approach ensures effective results and a better quality of life for patients dealing with persistent head pain.
