Our Method of Relief

Is the Stellate Ganglion Block a painful procedure?

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, which helps minimize discomfort during the injection. Some patients may experience mild soreness or bruising at the injection site, but it is typically temporary.

How soon will I see the effects of the Stellate Ganglion Block?

Some patients report immediate relief following the procedure, while others may experience a gradual improvement in their symptoms over several days.

How long do the effects of Stellate Ganglion Blocks last?

The duration of symptom relief can vary, but many patients experience significant improvement in mood and a reduction in symptoms for an extended period of time. Follow-up treatments may be recommended to maintain the benefits.

We Do Things the Right Way

Stellate Ganglion Blocks involve the injection of a local anesthetic and sometimes a steroid medication into the stellate ganglion, which is a cluster of nerves located in the neck. This procedure helps regulate the sympathetic nervous system, known for triggering the "fight or flight" response, and can provide significant relief for individuals suffering from mood disorders like PTSD.
