At AURA, we specialize in Dual Sympathetic Reset (DSR)—an advanced stellate ganglion block protocol that targets the root cause of trauma-related symptoms. This precision image-guided procedure works at multiple levels of your sympathetic nervous system, providing comprehensive relief from PTSD, anxiety, and stress-related conditions where standard treatments have limitations. Experience the next generation of neurological healing in beautiful Medellin.
Why Your Brain Gets Stuck
And How We Set It Free
The Science Behind Breakthrough Results
Trauma doesn’t just create memories—it rewires your nervous system. Published research in JAMA Psychiatry reveals how chronic stress creates a biological trap: your fight-or-flight response becomes permanently activated, flooding your system with stress chemicals even when you’re safe.
Traditional stellate ganglion block procedures target this stuck system, but they only address one level of the sympathetic chain—which is why many patients experience incomplete relief.
Our Dual Sympathetic Reset protocol represents a quantum leap forward. By targeting multiple levels of your sympathetic nervous system simultaneously, DSR creates the comprehensive “reset” your brain needs to break free from trauma’s grip.

DSR FAQ
Is DSR therapy safe?
Stellate ganglion blocks have been used safely in medical practice for nearly a century. Our dual-injection protocol uses advanced ultrasound guidance to ensure precise placement while avoiding critical structures. While rare complications can occur with any medical procedure, our experienced team follows strict safety protocols.
How do I know if I'm a good candidate for DSR?
DSR may be beneficial if you experience symptoms related to sympathetic nervous system dysfunction—such as PTSD, anxiety, chronic pain conditions, or Long COVID symptoms. The best candidates often have tried conventional treatments with limited success and are seeking approaches that address root neurobiological causes. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your specific symptoms, medical history, and treatment goals to determine if DSR aligns with your wellness journey.
What should I expect during and after the procedure?
The DSR procedure typically takes 20-30 minutes and involves two precise injections in the neck area under imaging guidance. You may experience temporary effects like a drooping eyelid, constricted pupil, or hoarse voice—these indicate successful sympathetic nerve blockade. Most people can return to normal activities within 24-48 hours. Some patients report immediate relief, while others notice gradual improvement over days to weeks.
How long do the results typically last?
Response duration varies significantly between individuals. Some patients experience relief lasting months to years, while others may benefit from periodic treatments. The dual-injection protocol is designed to provide more sustained results than traditional single-injection approaches. During your follow-up care, we’ll monitor your response and adjust our integrative treatment plan to support lasting nervous system balance.
Why choose AURA in Medellin for DSR therapy?
AURA combines advanced DSR techniques with our comprehensive regenerative medicine approach in a luxury wellness environment. Medellin offers world-class medical facilities at exceptional value, while our integrative model addresses healing from multiple angles—not just the procedure itself. Our personalized care extends beyond DSR to include complementary therapies that support long-term nervous system recovery and overall vitality.
Will this interfere with my current medications or treatments?
We’ll thoroughly review all your current medications and treatments during consultation. DSR typically doesn’t interfere with most medications, though we may provide specific guidance about blood thinners or certain other drugs. Our integrative approach often complements existing treatments rather than replacing them. We coordinate with your healthcare providers to ensure seamless, comprehensive care.
What if DSR doesn't work for me?
While many patients experience significant improvement, not everyone responds to DSR therapy. Honest discussions about realistic expectations are part of our consultation process. At AURA, DSR is one component of our comprehensive regenerative medicine approach. If DSR doesn’t provide the relief you’re seeking, we can explore other innovative therapies within our integrative wellness framework to support your healing journey.
How does DSR actually work to relieve symptoms?
DSR targets the stellate ganglion, a key nerve cluster that regulates sympathetic nervous system activity. The dual-injection technique temporarily blocks overactive “fight-or-flight” signals, allowing your nervous system to reset to a calmer baseline. This can break cycles of chronic stress, anxiety, and pain that maintain symptoms. The temporary block can create lasting changes by reducing nerve growth factors that perpetuate sympathetic hyperactivity.
What's the difference between DSR and traditional stellate ganglion blocks?
AURA’s DSR protocol uses two strategically placed injections at the C6 and C4 levels, compared to traditional single-injection approaches. This dual-injection technique aims to achieve more complete sympathetic blockade, potentially leading to enhanced effectiveness and longer-lasting results. Combined with our integrative wellness approach, DSR becomes part of a comprehensive healing strategy rather than an isolated procedure.
How do I prepare for my consultation and potential treatment?
Your consultation focuses on understanding your unique situation and determining the best path forward. Come prepared to discuss your symptoms, previous treatments, and wellness goals. If we proceed with DSR, we’ll provide detailed preparation instructions including medication guidelines and pre-treatment protocols. Our team coordinates all aspects of your Medellin wellness journey, from consultation through recovery support.
