James Lynch Md, Llc

A Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB): Dr. James Lynch is an international expert in stellate ganglion block (SGB), which is a procedure used to treat symptoms of Anxiety and PTSD. Stellate ganglion block is a procedure in which an injection of a long-acting local anesthetic, using ultrasound guidance, is made in the side of the neck around the main nerve that controls the “fight or flight” response (the sympathetic nervous system). This nerve,(the cervical sympathetic chain) connects the parts of the brain that control the fight or flight response (referred to as the central autonomic network) to the rest of the body. By blocking or “turning off” the traffic in the cervical sympathetic chain, it is believed that the parts of the brain that control the fight or flight response are allowed to reset, resulting in long-term relief of the associated anxiety symptoms.
