Ketamine Now Being Used in Local Los Angeles clinic to treat Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) and Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD)
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 26, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Studies continue to pour in about the efficacy of Ketamine for Depression as well as chronic pain syndromes such as Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy. That is why Ketamine is now being used to treat chronic nerve pain and symptoms related to Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) and Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD) at Ketamine Healing Clinic of Los Angeles, located at 1964 Westwood Blvd in Los Angeles, California 90025. Ketamine Healing Clinic is the only center in Los Angeles offering high dose intravenous ketamine treatments in a safe and effective manner to patients with chronic pain. His IV protocol for Depression has been highly efficacious as well, having given him close to a 90% success rate in helping those with treatment-resistant depression. Dr. David Mahjoubi, board-certified anesthesiologist and owner of Ketamine Healing Clinic is a leading expert in ketamine therapy, having used the medication for over a decade, and a pioneer in treating pain and mood disorders with IV ketamine infusions.
Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), also referred to as Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), is a chronic condition involving a malfunction of the nervous system, including the peripheral nerves and brain. Though its mechanism is not clearly known, RSD results in a persistent arm and leg pain, and is usually triggered by a prior injury, surgery, stroke or other events. IV ketamine treatments are incredibly effective in alleviating chronic nerve pain associated with RSD by blocking NMDA receptors that signal the pain. In turn, when delivered in high dosages, IV ketamine infusions produce significant results in Treatment-Resistant Depression (TSD) when conventional methods have failed.
"As the only provider of high dose IV ketamine treatments in LA, I'm pleased to offer a solution for patients suffering from chronic pain relating to reflex sympathetic dystrophy and treatment-resistant depression at my clinic. It's satisfying to see patients embracing a higher quality of life, free of pain and depressive symptoms," says Dr. David Mahjoubi, MD of Ketamine Healing Clinic of Los Angeles. "What distinguishes us from other clinics is that we place our patients on a nasal Ketamine spray to be used at home, be it for Depression or Chronic Pain, so patients don't have to keep coming back for IV "boosters." This has really worked out quite well for our patients."
