Ketamine Therapy
Hailed as the biggest breakthrough in over a half century, ketamine therapy is quickly gaining recognition for its fast-acting and highly effective relief of symptoms related to mood disorders and chronic pain.
Developed and approved by the FDA as an anesthetic in 1962, Ketamine has been commonly used on battlefields, in operating rooms, and in pediatric medicine for minor procedures.
Beginning in the 1990s, researchers at Yale Medical School began looking at the potential for low-dose ketamine therapy to help patients with treatment-resistant depression. Affecting nearly a third of depression patients, treatment-resistant depression occurs when multiple antidepressants fail to bring relief of symptoms.
What they found exceeded their wildest expectations. Among those with treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, and suicidality, over 75% found relief of symptoms. Moreover, they discovered through brain imaging that ketamine spurred the growth of new neurons in the brain that had been damaged by years of depression and anxiety.
This remarkable feature of ketamine means that the benefits can last even when it is no longer in the body. In fact, many patients feel the benefits of treatment for weeks, months, or even longer.
