A method for treating a nerve within a treatment region includes identifying the treatment region and positioning a device on a surface of skin for emitting ultrasound energy, wherein the device comprises a transducer array. The method further includes focusing the transducer array within the positioned device such that the ultrasound energy is focused on the treatment region, and verifying the positioned device is directing ultrasound energy on the treatment region. The method also includes delivering ultrasound energy to the treatment region based on a predetermined time, and removing the positioned device when the predetermined time has been reached.
