Ketamine and Chronic Pain

by

If you are one of the more than 20% of Americans suffering from chronic pain, you know all too well that the typical pain management routes often fall short. Physical therapy, opioids, and rest are often incapable of addressing chronic pain–the type that is always there, even on good days, in the background, affecting your life. This is the kind of pain that keeps you from doing the things you love to do, from traveling, from being as active as you’d like to be, from hitting your PR, from making that last run on the slopes, from playing with your kids. Fortunately, Ketamine may be able to help you get back to living fully.

The Ketamine Diaries: Reflections

by

Our brave client completed her sixth Ketamine session and provided her reflections on the process and its impact on her. When combined with her own open-mindedness and hard work, these Ketamine treatments made some significant, lasting changes in her life and in her outlook. As usual, she describes it far better than we could, so ENJOY the last entry in The Ketamine Diaries!

Ketamine Diaries: Session 3

by

This week, in our client’s third Ketamine session, we dive even deeper with her. Last session, she learned to sit with discomfort, and now she is learning to reframe challenges and discouragement. This is huge! Through her beautiful reflections, we are seeing her brain slowly rewired. The Ketamine does its job on a chemical level, and she does her job by earnestly processing and implementing the lessons gleaned from each session. We are so proud of her and so thrilled with the effectiveness of this treatment. Her words express it much better than we could, so enjoy!

The Ketamine Diaries: Session 2

by

After critical acclaim, we’re back with session 2 of the Ketamine Diaries! We loved hearing our client’s vulnerable and vivid description of her first experience with Ketamine. This week, we bring you her account of her second session, and she gets even more vulnerable. The most important thing to take from this account is that Ketamine is not a magic bullet or a happy pill. It is a tool that must be handled with care. It helps to rewire your brain, but you must prepare for each session, engage each session, and incorporate changes after each session. She talks about sitting with the discomfort of the treatment and the changes she hopes to make afterward. We hope you find it as informative and helpful as we did!

The Ketamine Diaries: An Intimate Account – Session 1

by

One of our first Ketamine clients was brave enough to not only try Ketamine for her depression but to document her experience and to anonymously share it with the community. She did so to shed light on the process and benefits and to help alleviate any fear. For the next four weeks, we will publish one diary entry each week.

Ketamine: Reversing the Effects of Depression

by

Ketamine use has been found to lessen depression symptoms in 70% of patients. Ketamine’s unique effect on brain chemistry makes it extremely safe and effective.  We hope an understanding of this process will remove some of the taboo and shed some light on the potential benefits of ketamine infusion therapy. 

Hair Restoration

by

The average person loses 50-100 hairs each day without even knowing it because those hairs are seamlessly replaced at the same rate. We don’t care too much about those people, because they don’t need our help via hair restoration with PRP and PRF. When hair loss exceeds hair regrowth, you may start to notice balding spots, a receding hairline, or hair that is overall thinner. This is where we come in. If you’ve tried the typical solutions (plugs, shampoos, and medications) without results, you may be feeling hopeless. Fortunately, an effective solution may be inside your own body! Let’s talk Hair Restoration with PRP and PRF.

Laser Hair Reduction FAQs

Laser hair reduction may not be in the forefront of your mind if your world looks like ours does right now. Winter is in full force here in Northern Idaho, so we’re thinking of hydration and protecting our skin from the elements. The last thing we’re thinking about is being fuzz-free when we’re finally ready to shed layers. However, this is the perfect time to prepare for sunny days with laser hair reduction. Check out our answers to some Frequently Asked Questions to help you decide if this treatment is right for you.
