Treating Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

Furthermore, you may find it hard to talk to friends and family about it.  In fact, even work can be difficult.

If you continue to suffer in spite of your current treatments, you are not alone.  Many receiving traditional treatments do not get better.  As a result, they have turned to other therapies. Ketamine is an excellent option for patients that have had ineffective results with traditional medications for PTSD. Ketamine therapy can target and reconsolidate memories of traumatic experiences. This in turn helps the brain to reject the trauma rather than retaining it, which can lead to dysfunctional patterns of thought and behavior. Several studies have also found it to be effective for treating suicidal ideation. In addition, ketamine can begin to give symptom relief within 24 hours versus taking 6-8 weeks with traditional medications. With customized treatment, you can control your PTSD symptoms and maintain a healthy and active life. 

Ketamine has long been shown to be rapidly effective in the treatment of PTSD with relief that can begin within minutes to hours after the first infusion. Arizona Ketamine Specialists does not treat PTSD with a basic ketamine IV infusion, instead patients are treated using the Advanced Personalized Ketamine Protocol. Developed by Dr. Vanlierop, the Advanced Personalized Ketamine Protocol combines cutting edge research and innovations in the fields of Anesthesiology, Pain Management, and Mental Health with focus on treating each patient as an individual.
