Ketamine has a long history as a powerful anesthetic. It has been used in surgery since the Vietnam War. However, since 1994, medical researchers have found that lower doses of ketamine delivered intravenously offer relief from a wide range of conditions, including treatment-resistant depression, post-traumatic stress disorder and many forms of chronic pain, such as fibromyalgia, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), and reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD). Today, Dr. Mukalel and his team offer personalized infusion therapy to help patients feel better and restore their quality of life. The practice uses state-of-the-art medical equipment in a tranquil environment. The highly trained staff remain with patients throughout their treatment to ensure their safety and the effectiveness of treatment.
