Ketamine near Mesa CA | Depression and Chronic Pain Treatment

Ketamine–a 50-year-old generic drug—has long been used in large doses as a generic anesthetic. However, medical research of the last decade has found a new purpose for the drug as both a depression treatment and a non-addictive pain reliever.  No ketamine infusions are available near Mesa, CA.

There are roughly 12 million American adults living with Fibromyalgia, 200 million living with CRPS, and 11 million living with diabetic nerve pain. Debilitating conditions like these make it difficult for them to live a normal, productive life—especially when regular treatment isn’t applied. Unlike its traditional opiate counterparts, when ketamine is used in much lower doses, it has been shown to offer potent pain relief without the added risk of addiction. Thanks to the therapeutic effects from a cycle of ketamine infusions, many of our patients dealing with chronic pain have found a way to live a better, more productive & addiction-free life, once again.

Similarly, through its unique mechanisms of action as an NMDA receptor antagonist, low doses of ketamine have also been shown to offer effective depressive symptom relief for even the most treatment-resistant cases. Thanks to its swift-acting effects, the benefits of a ketamine infusion are usually noticeable within a few hours of administration and not weeks or months like traditional SSRIs. With nearly 70% of patients reporting it successfully treating their depression, it’s understandable why it has earned the position as the fastest depression treatment available today.

With little risk involved, there’s little reason not to try a cycle of ketamine infusions for your depression or chronic pain.
