Promising new treatment for chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia.
Are you searching for the best new fibromyalgia treatment in Alabama near you? At Southern Mind and Wellness, we are proud to offer the latest in mental health treatment options. In addition to high levels of safety standards and patient care, Southern Mind and Wellness utilizes ketamine infusion therapy for the treatment of fibromyalgia, as well as other chronic pain disorders like migraines, restless leg syndrome, and CRPS.
Our mission statement at Southern Mind and Wellness is to provide personalized, high-quality management options for people struggling with treatment-resistant conditions. Ketamine infusions have proven to be a powerful and rapid treatment for neuropathic pain and other chronic pain conditions.
With traditional fibromyalgia treatments, it can sometimes take weeks or even months before symptom relief is experienced. Ketamine is an inspiring treatment option because in some cases it can provide relief from symptoms within days or even hours.
Ketamine for chronic pain offers fast and efficient relief from the symptoms of fibromyalgia, with up to 75% of patients reporting a positive response to just a single ketamine infusion.
It is believed that the main cause of chronic pain is due to an overactivity of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor in the brain. Ketamine helps the condition by attaching to the NMDA receptor and blocking it from being activated by glutamate, a neurotransmitter, thereby helping to mute the effects of chronic pain symptoms. By connecting to those receptors, ketamine may be able to amplify the number of glutamate neurotransmitters in the empty space between neurons.
Glutamate then interacts with the AMPA receptors. Together, these receptors bring about the discharge of multiple molecules that boost the brain’s neuroplasticity — essentially, ketamine infusions allow the brain to reset and restore important nerve connections.
