About Stella Center Denver

Stella Center Denver is a certified clinic of Stella located in the office of Denver Spine and Pain Institute, offering innovative biological interventions to help treat and alleviate symptoms of anxiety, depression, and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Their primary treatment method is dual sympathetic reset (DSR)/stellate ganglion block (SGB). In addition to this biological intervention, Stella Center Denver offers optional individual counseling services to support the treatment process. Stella Center’s staff will review potential client’s symptoms and health history to determine if they’re a good fit for Stella’s treatments.
The DSR treatment involves an injection next to a collection of nerves that regulate involuntary functions such as heart rate and blood pressure. The injection helps regulate the flight-or-flight response and return the nervous system to a baseline state. SGB has been approved by the FDA for pain management, but is used as an off-label procedure for alleviating mental health symptoms and is supported by medical research. Stella Center Denver offers in-house financing options and accepts insurance for intake appointments.

Private non-profit organization. Primary focus: substance use treatment, transitional housing, halfway house, or sober home.
