The SphenoCath® delivers a local anesthetic to the sphenopalatine ganglion group (SPG) of nerves in the back of the nasal cavity.
The anesthetic is delivered using a thin, soft, flexible catheter inserted through the nostril, without the use of needles, cotton swabs, or harsh medications.
SphenoCath® revolutionized how SPG blocks are delivered, eliminating discomfort to make the procedure safe, fast and comfortable.
The procedure is fast (2–5 minutes), with minimal recovery (15 minutes) and can be performed in-office by any trained medical professional.
Most patients experience immediate relief from headache pain.
