Why a dual block
You cannot optimize the body until you reboot the nervous system.
The stellate ganglion is a bundle of sympathetic nerves in the neck that helps regulate your stress response. When it stays switched on, the body gets stuck in what is best described as survival mode: the “tired but wired” pattern of sympathetic overdrive.
The Reboot Procedure™ addresses both sides in a single visit. A local anesthetic is placed around the stellate ganglion under real-time ultrasound guidance, right side first, then left.
- Ultrasound guidedReal-time imaging guides each injection.
- Both sides, one visitRight side, then left side, the same day.
- Phase one of fourThe reset is the foundation for Repair, Restore and Optimize.
Patient reviews
In their words.
I had forgotten what it felt like to be happy, calm or get good sleep. The DSGB brought those things back and I couldn’t be more thankful.
As a veteran with multiple deployments … within 72 hours I started to find myself happier, more at ease and almost peaceful.
The SGB injections I received were effective and noticeable immediately.
My wife and I both had the SGB here and the experience was top notch.
Awesome treatment all around; I feel better than I have in years.
