Naturopathic Physician, Dr. Drew Timmermans, discusses the use of a stellate ganglion block (SGB) for a patient’s anxiety. The SGB involves an injection that helps relieve a patient’s overactive sympathetic (“fight or flight”) nervous system. This therapy needs to be paired with some form of counseling so that the patient can go into, and address, the traumatic experiences. So often patients with chronic pain have lingering traumatic stress that impedes their ability to get to a new place of healing… working through traumatic experiences is critical to finding complete health and wellness, and patients don’t have to try to do it alone. There are tools and people willing to help.
