The Liberation Treatment

The Liberation Treatment involves opening narrowed veins in the neck of the patient. The condition of narrowed veins is called Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency or CCSVI. Karen will be tested for narrowed veins when she first arrives in Bulgaria. If she has narrowed veins she will have a non-invasive surgery to have the narrowed veins opened. The veins are opened with a small balloon which is threaded up to the veins in the neck from an incision in the upper thigh. Opening the veins will allow blood to flow more freely from the brain back to the heart.
