Ketamine Therapy
Ketamine Infusion for Treatment of Bipolar Disorder
BIPOLAR DISORDER RESPONDS WELL TO KETAMINE INFUSION THERAPY
Bipolar is fairly common, affecting nearly 3% of adults in the United States (about five million people), and also incredibly complex.
At its core, bipolar disorder leads to unusual mood shifts, often causing a person to swing from one end of the spectrum to the other (mania to depression).
The FDA recently approved the use of ketamine for treatment-resistant depression as it acts quickly and effectively in many patients.
Ketamine works by causing the release of molecules in your brain that create new communication pathways between your neurons. This process is called synaptogenesis, which can improve how you’re able to regulate your moods.
Anxiety
According to ADAA, anxiety is closely related to depression & affects 40 Million in the US. Risk factors include genetics, brain chemistry, personality & life events. Anxiety is highly treatable with low-dose Ketamine.
Bipolar
Bipolar disorder or "Manic Depression" causes moods to swing between extreme highs & extreme lows. Ketamine often helps relieve symptoms of severe bipolar in patients who have already tried other treatments.
Chronic Pain
The Cleveland Clinic describes neuropathic pain as "burning, pins & needles, shooting, electric, tingling, or stabbing". There are multiple causes & when other therapies fail, Ketamine effectively helps 4 out of 5 patients.
Depression
Depression affects 18 Million people in the US. Common symptoms include loss of energy, difficulty concentrating, loss of pleasure & suicidal thoughts. Ketamine Infusions can help.
OCD
According to NIMH, 1 out of every 100 adults suffer from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Ketamine infusions may help to alleviate symptoms when other treatment options have failed.
PTSD
According to the VA, 1 in 11 people are diagnosed with PTSD in their lifetime. PTSD affects Veterans and anyone who has experienced or witnessed trauma. Ketamine can help you cope with major life traumas & thoughts of harm.
