Ketamine Therapy for Fibromyalgia in Cedar Park, TX

What Is Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is often misunderstood. It is characterized by musculoskeletal pain, but there is no visible cause. It is also not just about pain. The condition often brings with it additional symptoms, including mood changes, fatigue, an inability to sleep, memory loss, and more. Current research on the condition has found that the disease amplifies painful sensations by altering how pain and non-pain signals are processed in the spinal cord and brain.

Treating fibromyalgia can include pain relievers, antidepressants, and anti-seizure drugs, as well as counseling, physical therapy, and occupational therapy. However, for all those options, sufferers are often left in pain and dealing with unwanted, challenging side effects. Ketamine therapy can offer a dramatic difference by alleviating pain and even addressing other symptoms.
