The procedure involves an injection of anesthetic into a bundle of nerves located in the neck called the stellate ganglion, and employs modern ultrasound technology that allows Dr. Silva to visualize the target area clearly. The relief for most is almost immediate and the effect can last for months or in some cases, permanently.
SGB treatment aids in “rebooting” the autonomic nervous system and is also a treatment option for those suffering from other conditions, such as dysautonomia, PTSD, and generalized anxiety. Incorporating ultrasound technology during the SGB procedures enables precision, allowing the doctor to steer clear of any sensitive structures in the neck. This also ensures the medication properly reaches the stellate ganglion.
While post-SGB treatment may manifest temporary side effects like Horner’s Syndrome, studies emphasize the procedure’s high tolerance among patients, often showcasing minimal side effects. Managing these effects requires resting at home after the procedure and avoiding certain stressors.
Originating from the 1920s, the SGB procedure has a long history of effectiveness. Aside from its use for alleviating the symptoms of Long Covid, it has also been used for managing symptoms of other ailments that can result from autonomic dysfunction such as sweating, and irregular blood pressure associated with conditions like POTS.
