Controlling Anxiety and PTSD by Rebooting Your Nerves
Originally published by NW Regen on
Heart racing. Sweaty palms. Shortness of breath. Triggers. Fear, anxiety, and PTSD are no joke. What if there was a shot that could help you control fear, anxiety, and panic attacks and PTSD by rebooting the right nerves?
The stellate ganglion is a collection of nerves in the neck which seems to have control over the activation of the amygdala, a primitive component of the limbic system thought to play a role in the processing of fear, anxiety, panic attacks, and the basic “fight or flight” responses that we experience during dangerous situations. Stellate Ganglion Blocks (SGBs) are extremely precise injections that target this collection of sympathetic nerves and can help to control these responses.
