Dr. Beauchamp was first introduced to the dual sympathetic reset (DSR) - an advanced stellate ganglion block (SGB) - by his wife, Lisa, after she read The Invisible Machine. As a chiropractor, the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems are common terms within Dr. Beauchamp's field. But DSR SGB for anxiety, depression and PTSI isn't well-known within the community. Dr. Beauchamp first received treatment after experiencing debilitating anxiety and panic attacks which caused him to miss work. After witnessing his profound results, Lisa received DSR shortly after for her symptoms of PTSI. Lisa and Dr. Beauchamp have found their own version of relief individually, and as a couple.

The significance of Spravato in the realm of mental health cannot be overstated. It represents a groundbreaking approach to treatment-resistant major depressive disorder (MDD), particularly for those with suicidal thoughts or behaviors. By offering a new, rapid-acting treatment option that's covered by insurance, Spravato has the potential to transform lives and offer relief where traditional antidepressants have failed.

Measuring success by lives changed.

I am happy to share my new publication in Military Medicine in July 2024, where I describe the need to change the name of Stellate Ganglion Block ( SGB ) when it is used to describe a two-level injection; this name change will lead to a more scientifically accurate description of what is actually being done: cervical sympathetic injection (CSI). In Stella Center, we call it Dual Sympathetic Reset (DSR), which seems more efficacious as compared to SGB. When a 2-level procedure is done, it should be described as such. The reason behind the higher efficacy of DSR vs. SGB for treating PTSD is also available in my prior publications; essentially, it is a more complete reset of the sympathetic nervous system of the brain. CSI has also been shown to help with Traumatic Brain Injury by Dr Mulvaney; his findings are similar to ours in Stella Center. https://lnkd.in/e5cUgSAg

“Patients aren't getting better because they aren’t treating the biological pieces, like the scaring in the brain.” Karen DeCocker spoke with Jackie Crea at NBC News about treating traumatic brain injury (TBI) and the mental health symptoms associated with it:

Spravato represents a significant breakthrough in the treatment of severe depression, offering rapid and sustained relief where traditional antidepressants may fail. Covered by major insurance, Spravato is offering hope to those who haven't yet found the relief they are looking for:

Following Stella's multi-modality protocol of 2 DSRs and 4 ketamine infusions, patients saw a 83.7% decrease in depression symptoms and a 76.9% decrease in PTSD symptoms. With the current therapeutic modalities of psychotherapy and pharmaceuticals to treat PTSD having low efficacy and low compliance rate, more effective treatment modalities are highly required and should be researched. The focus of Stella's latest report is the improvement of PTSD and depression symptoms following bilateral DSR SGB and ketamine infusion therapy as opposed to single modality treatment alone. Read the research article:

TMS is an FDA approved treatment that is covered by most insurances. What does TMS treat? TMS can help those with depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxious depression and anxiety when other treatments have been ineffective. Heather Miller APRN, DNP, PMHNP-BC walks through what TMS treatment in Chicago is like at Stella. Book a virtual consultation to see if TMS or Stella's other mental health treatments like Spravato (Esketamine), ketamine infusions or the dual sympathetic reset (an advanced stellate ganglion block) can help you: https://lnkd.in/gbBSwqdQ Neurostar
