Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB) for Trauma, Long COVID, & Chronic Pain
Break Free from Trauma, Reset Your Nervous System, and Take Control of Your Healing
At Narrativ Heal, we believe in addressing the root causes of suffering—not just managing symptoms. The Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB) is a revolutionary treatment that targets the autonomic nervous system, helping to reset the body’s stress response and offering lasting relief from PTSD, anxiety, chronic pain, and even long COVID symptoms.
​
If you or your patients are trapped in cycles of chronic stress, trauma, or persistent pain, SGB offers a path to profound healing.

What is the Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB)?
​
The stellate ganglion is a nerve cluster located in the cervical (neck) region that plays a key role in the body’s fight-or-flight response. When trauma, illness, or chronic stress dysregulate this system, the body can remain in a constant state of hypervigilance, leading to PTSD, anxiety, chronic pain, and other autonomic dysfunctions.
​
SGB works by injecting a local anesthetic into this nerve center, effectively "resetting" the nervous system—allowing the brain and body to shift out of survival mode and into a state of healing.
