Treatment for upper limb spasticity

Patients with upper limb spasticity can significantly improve their function by having treatment to reduce the spasticity in an arm. Patients who have had a stroke, traumatic brain injury, Multiple Sclerosis, cerebral palsy, or spinal cord injury often suffer from upper limb spasticity. Botox has been approved by the FDA to treat upper limb spasticity. Treatment is every 3 months, and is covered by Medicare and most commercial insurances.
