“It's like shaking the snow globe, the old patterns are broken and new better ones are made.” How can ketamine help treat depression, PTSD, and anxiety? What about self-explorers, people who just want to learn more about themselves? What is happening in the brain during the treatment? Who should not do ketamine? What does someone experience while doing ketamine? How many treatments does one typically need? What does the future of ketamine therapy look like? What are the risks?

Dr. Rachel Allen joins us on the SuperAge podcast to explain ketamine therapy for the treatment of depression, PTSD, & anxiety. Dr. Allen is a double board-certified anesthesiologist and chronic pain specialist. She has been practicing in the field of anesthesia and pain management for over 9 years and with her husband has opened Satori Health and Wellness in St. George, Utah where they specialize in healing their patients through ketamine treatments.
