What Is A Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB)?

The Stellate Ganglion block is a low-risk, fast, and highly effective medical procedure that involves the application of a local anesthetic to the front area of the neck. The procedure is an Ultrasound guided technique performed by a skillfully trained specialist. This anesthetic procedure targets the cervical sympathetic chain, allowing the body to reset and parts of the nervous systems that may be compromised.

How long does the Stellate Ganglion Block procedure take?

Our team of clinicians at Ketamine & Wellness Clinic of South Florida can complete a Stellate Ganglion Block in around an hour and a half. The procedure is minimally invasive and performed quickly once our patients are prepped and ready for treatment.

How long will my Stellate Ganglion Block last?

Studies and clinical results show that Stellate Ganglion Blocks can provide relief for several months or even years. This timeframe will vary from person to person, but most patients experience long-lasting relief from long-covid symptoms.
