Stellate Ganglion Block Offers Rapid PTSD Relief: Implications for Thai Health and Society
As soldiers increasingly report psychological trauma, experts spotlight a treatment that could change PTSD care: the Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB). A recent briefing highlights SGB as a potential breakthrough for high-stress populations, including military personnel. While the case for SGB is strongest in contexts with rapid symptom relief, the discussion resonates with Thailand’s growing focus on mental health awareness and accessible care.
In Israel, PTSD is recognized as a major challenge for personnel who have faced extended combat exposure. The Defense Ministry has drawn attention to the condition as a pressing issue among both physically injured and psychologically distressed soldiers. The experience of frontline units that endure long deployments underscores the demand for faster-acting therapies that can complement existing treatments.
