Sympathetic Blocks or Neurolysis

The sympathetic nervous system has a role in neuropathic, vascular and visceral pain. Blocking the sympathetic nerves help to block nerves that carry painful signals. For vascular pain resulting from poor blood circulation, sympathetic blocks can improve blood flow and relieve pain. This procedure is also effective for chronic abdominal or pelvic pain conditions as well as cancers.

Suitable for:

• Peripheral vascular disease
• Chronic pancreatitis
• Complex regional pain syndrome (reflex sympathetic dystrophy)
• Abdominal cancers (liver, pancreas, stomach)
• Pelvic cancers (uterus, rectum, anus, vagina)
