Statistics published by the National Alliance on Mental Illness, 20 percent of all American adults experience mental illness with approximately 10 million adults in America living with serious mental illnesses. Depression and bipolar disorder account for 16 million cases with depression being the leading cause of mental disability around the world.
Ascend Ketamine has introduced low-cost infusion therapy as a revolutionary new treatment to combat the effects of these psychiatric disorders. The clinic administers intravenous ketamine as a legal and safe medication for chronic pain management and the alleviation of symptoms associated with depression, PTSD, anxiety and mood disorders.
The National Institute of Mental Health documents ketamine as a faster path to treating depression. Drug-based depression therapies rely on the control of specific neurotransmitters and offer short-term relief with long delays before the effects of the treatment can be felt. Ketamine infusions act rapidly, relieving symptoms in a few hours and have been documented to be effective against treatment-resistant depression.
Physicians at Ascend Ketamine carefully monitor ketamine infusions for psychiatric disorders in 1-hour sessions followed by follow-up schedules and post-infusion support.
According to a spokesperson for the Houston ketamine infusion clinic, “IV ketamine is a powerful new treatment for depression that has the potential to offer patients reliable and quick relief on account of the antidepressant effects of its glutamate signaling inhibition properties. We believe that mental wellness should be affordable and look forward to helping individuals improve their quality of life through this practice.”
Ascend Ketamine is a Greater Houston ketamine therapy clinic founded by Medical Director Lars Thestrup, Darrell Calderon, Barry Diner, Jesus Arroyo—emergency physicians and community medical practitioners who administer and monitor ketamine infusion treatments. The Houston depression treatment practice offers a free consultation to help patients understand the treatment. More information is available over the phone at 832-930-2642 and at the URL above.
