However, Ayan Wellness in Lakeland offers a new treatment option showing promising results: Ketamine therapy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ketamine, a medication initially used as an anesthetic, has been found to have rapid and significant antidepressant effects. It targets a specific receptor in the brain, known as the NMDA receptor, which is involved in regulating mood and emotion. By activating this receptor, ketamine can quickly reduce symptoms of depression and improve overall mood.<\/p>\n\n\n        \n        <div class=\"embedpress-gutenberg-wrapper source-provider-Youtube aligncenter ep-clear   ep-content-protection-disabled inline\" id=\"\" data-embed-type=\"Youtube \">\n            <div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper \">\n                <div id=\"ep-gutenberg-content-\" class=\"ep-gutenberg-content\">\n                    <div >\n                        <div class=\"ep-embed-content-wraper preset-default insta-grid ep-google-photos-carousel\"\n                            style=\"max-width:600px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto\"                                                                                                                >\n\n                            <div class=\"ose-youtube ose-uid-5a89212578d86f3bd50614bdd69386e8 ose-embedpress-responsive\" style=\"width:600px; max-width:100%; height: 100%; display:inline-block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowFullScreen=\"true\" title=\"3 Things Ketamine Therapy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_fjeVF9cL_4?feature=oembed&#038;color=red&#038;rel=1&#038;controls=2&#038;start=true&#038;end=true&#038;fs=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;modestbranding=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen title=\"Depression, Dementia, PTSD: How Ketamine is Changing the Game\"><\/iframe><\/div>                        <\/div>\n\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    \n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ketamine therapy is also being studied as a treatment for dementia and PTSD. Studies have shown that ketamine can improve cognitive function and memory in patients with dementia and can reduce symptoms of PTSD, such as anxiety and flashbacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Ayan Wellness, we use a specialized delivery system called &#8220;intravenous infusion,\u201d or IV, which allows for the medication to be administered in a safe and controlled manner. The treatment protocol includes six intravenous infusions in a 2 to 3 weeks timeframe.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1110px) 100vw, 1110px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/ayanlogo2.jpg?resize=424%2C424&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29480\" width=\"424\" height=\"424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/ayanlogo2.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/ayanlogo2.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/ayanlogo2.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/ayanlogo2.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/ayanlogo2.jpg?resize=250%2C250&amp;ssl=1 250w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/ayanlogo2.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ketamine therapy is not a &#8220;cure-all,&#8221; and it may not be appropriate for everyone. However, it has been shown to be a safe and effective treatment option for individuals who have not responded well to traditional therapies. If you or a loved one is struggling with depression, dementia, or PTSD, schedule a consultation with one of our medical professionals at Ayan Wellness in Lakeland to discuss whether ketamine therapy may be a good fit for you.<\/p>\n\n\n        \n        <div class=\"embedpress-gutenberg-wrapper source-provider-Youtube aligncenter ep-clear   ep-content-protection-disabled inline\" id=\"\" data-embed-type=\"Youtube \">\n            <div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper \">\n                <div id=\"ep-gutenberg-content-\" class=\"ep-gutenberg-content\">\n                    <div >\n                        <div class=\"ep-embed-content-wraper preset-default insta-grid ep-google-photos-carousel\"\n                            style=\"max-width:600px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto\"                                                                                                                >\n\n                            <div class=\"ose-youtube ose-uid-225545120e470e2632a5c6e3bc997564 ose-embedpress-responsive\" style=\"width:600px; max-width:100%; height: 100%; display:inline-block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowFullScreen=\"true\" title=\"KETAMINE\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VtUCe-ZcJY8?feature=oembed&#038;color=red&#038;rel=1&#038;controls=2&#038;start=true&#038;end=true&#038;fs=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;modestbranding=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen title=\"Depression, Dementia, PTSD: How Ketamine is Changing the Game\"><\/iframe><\/div>                        <\/div>\n\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    \n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visit the website for more information (<a href=\"https:\/\/ayanwellness.com\">https:\/\/ayanwellness.com<\/a>), or call to schedule your consult today <a href=\"tel:863-816-3449\">863-816-3449<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Depression, dementia, and PTSD are all conditions that can significantly affect an individual&#8217;s quality of life.
