Connective tissue disorders encapsulate a number of conditions in which the collagen and elastin comprising the skin and ligaments are damaged. It can cause issues in your bones, joints, skin, heart, and lungs, which may manifest as pain, swelling, fatigue, and numbness. The practice’s ketamine therapy plans work by blocking your NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors, helping your brain manage pain and acting as a mood-boosting agent.
The Interventional Orthopedics team will begin by evaluating your medical and psychiatric history to determine whether ketamine therapy is the appropriate treatment option in your case. If you have cardiovascular issues, are pregnant, or have had a negative reaction to anesthetic ketamine in the past, you will not be eligible for the treatment.
The practitioners will discuss what you can expect during and after the treatment. Some patients, for example, report mild anesthetic, anxiolytic, antidepressant, and, in fewer cases, psychedelic effects lasting up to three hours. With continued use, the benefits for mental and physical health can be cumulative.
Interventional Orthopedics of Washington also uses ketamine therapy to treat anxiety, depression, OCD, and PTSD, as well as help patients manage the symptoms of fibromyalgia and other neuropathic pain disorders.
