StrIVeMD Wellness and Ketamine Announces Expanded Access to Advanced Therapies for Treatment-Resistant Mental Health Conditions

In response to the growing mental health crisis exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, StrIVeMD Wellness and Ketamine, a concierge medical clinic, is expanding access to innovative therapies designed to address treatment-resistant mental health disorders.

StrIVeMD Wellness and Ketamine Expands Access to Innovative Mental Health Treatments

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the mental health crisis has become more pronounced, with many individuals finding traditional treatments ineffective for their conditions. StrIVeMD Wellness and Ketamine, with locations across Illinois, Ohio, and Texas, is addressing this challenge by offering therapies like intravenous ketamine microdose therapy and stellate ganglion block (SGB) that target treatment-resistant disorders.

According to data from the National Institute of Mental Health, nearly one in five adults in the U.S. experiences some form of mental illness, a statistic that underscores the need for more effective treatment options. Traditional approaches, including medications and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), are not always sufficient. To address this gap, StrIVeMD Wellness and Ketamine is providing access to alternative treatments that show promise in cases where conventional methods have failed.

Intravenous Ketamine Therapy: An Alternative Approach to Depression

Intravenous ketamine microdose therapy is being recognized for its potential benefits in managing depression, particularly in cases where traditional treatments have been unsuccessful. Unlike standard antidepressants, which can take weeks to show effects, ketamine acts on different pathways in the brain, often providing relief more quickly.

Ketamine’s impact on mood and neuroplasticity, through modulation of the neurotransmitter glutamate, offers a different mechanism of action compared to conventional antidepressants. This alternative approach has led to positive outcomes for some patients who have not found success with other treatments, although it is not suitable for everyone and requires careful medical supervision.

Dr. Syed Ali, the medical director and founder of StrIVeMD Wellness and Ketamine, notes, "Ketamine therapy is showing potential as an option for those who have struggled with severe depressive symptoms. Our approach prioritizes patient safety and monitoring to ensure the best possible outcomes."

Stellate Ganglion Block: A Potential Treatment for PTSD and Long COVID Symptoms

StrIVeMD Wellness and Ketamine is also utilizing stellate ganglion block (SGB) therapy to assist patients dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and lingering symptoms of long COVID. SGB involves an injection that targets the stellate ganglion, a group of nerves in the neck associated with the body’s stress response. This procedure has been noted for its potential to alleviate symptoms related to hyperarousal, a common issue in PTSD, and to assist in the recovery of sensory functions lost to long COVID.

The procedure’s use of advanced ultrasound technology allows for precise delivery and monitoring, which is crucial for the effectiveness and safety of the treatment. Although still being studied, this therapy has shown promise for individuals whose symptoms have not responded to more traditional interventions.

"The stellate ganglion block offers another avenue for patients struggling with PTSD and the aftereffects of COVID-19, especially those who have found limited relief through other treatments," Dr. Ali explains. "Our focus is on ensuring that these procedures are conducted with the highest level of care."

A Broad Spectrum of Anti-Aging and Regenerative Services

In addition to its mental health offerings, StrIVeMD Wellness and Ketamine provides a range of anti-aging and regenerative medicine services. These include platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy for hair regrowth and skin rejuvenation, as well as exosome therapy. The clinic also offers precision injections for joint and tendon pain, and treatments like PRP for erectile dysfunction.

Their approach emphasizes non-invasive methods that leverage the body’s natural healing processes, aiming to minimize the need for medications and surgery. StrIVeMD also uses FDA-approved peptides for weight management and addiction therapy, reflecting their broader focus on holistic wellness.

Commitment to Comprehensive Care

StrIVeMD Wellness and Ketamine is staffed by a team of board-certified specialists in anesthesiology, pain medicine, and functional medicine, many of whom have trained at leading institutions across the United States. Their goal is to provide personalized care that addresses both mental and physical health concerns under one roof.

StrIVeMD’s integrative approach combines cutting-edge therapies with a focus on individualized treatment plans, aiming to meet the needs of patients who have found limited success with traditional methods. The clinic’s expansion of services is part of a broader effort to provide comprehensive care for those facing complex health challenges.
