What is SphenoCath?
SphenoCath therapy is a minimally invasive procedure designed to deliver topical anaesthetic to the sphenopalatine ganglion, a key nerve cluster involved in chronic headache and facial pain. This treatment has shown promising results for migraines and cluster headaches. Studies published in Pain Physician demonstrate significant reductions in headache intensity following SPG block therapy.
The procedure is quick, well-tolerated, and avoids systemic medication side effects. Research in Headache supports its use in refractory headache cases. One study notes:
“Sphenopalatine ganglion block provides rapid and sustained headache relief in selected patients.”
This therapy offers fast-acting relief for chronic pain sufferers. Call today
