PTSD
“Trauma doesn’t have to define your future.” If flashbacks, hypervigilance or emotional numbness keep you trapped in the past, this page will show how IV ketamine therapy at AlphaOmega Wellness can help you reclaim your life from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
What Is PTSD?
Distressing memories or flashbacks that replay the traumatic event
Nightmares related to the trauma
Avoidance of people, places or situations that remind you of what happened
Hyperarousal (easily startled, constantly on guard, irritability)
Emotional numbness or detachment from others
Difficulty sleeping or concentrating
Guilt, shame or self‑blame
PTSD can make everyday life feel overwhelming and can lead to depression, substance use or relationship problems. Many sufferers have tried therapy or medication without sufficient relief.
Post‑traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental‑health condition that can develop after a person experiences or witnesses a traumatic event such as combat, assault, serious accidents, natural disasters or prolonged abuse. PTSD is characterized by intrusive memories, nightmares, emotional numbness, hypervigilance and avoidance of reminders of the trauma. Symptoms often include heightened startle responses, feelings of detachment, difficulty sleeping and intense guilt or shame.
If these symptoms feel familiar, it’s important to speak with a professional. Our care team is here to listen and guide you.
How IV Ketamine Helps PTSD
Ketamine is emerging as a promising option for PTSD because it targets glutamatergic pathways involved in memory, fear and mood regulation. By disrupting the negative feedback loops associated with trauma and promoting synaptic plasticity, ketamine can reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and help your brain form new, healthier connections. Patients often report relief from flashbacks and hyperarousal within days of treatment, with continued improvement over subsequent infusions. Ketamine’s rapid action can make traditional trauma therapy more effective by easing symptoms enough for deeper processing.
Why our approach stands out
Physician‑led dosing:
Treatments are supervised by Dr. Dee Bonney (25+ years as a board‑certified emergency physician) and Megan Bonney, PMHNP‑BC. Our team understands trauma’s effects on the body and mind.
Safety first:
IV ketamine is administered in a calm, private environment with emergency equipment and experienced staff on site. We don’t use lozenges or mail‑order kits. For your safety and results.
Integrative Care:
Ketamine isn’t the whole story. We encourage working with therapists (e.g., EMDR, somatic experiencing) during and after ketamine therapy.
Faith‑driven compassion:
You’re not just a number or a label, our family‑owned practice cares for you spiritually and emotionally while respecting your beliefs.
Your Treatment Plan
Free consultation: Meet with our team (in person or via telehealth) to discuss your symptoms, medical history and goals. We’ll answer every question: no pressure, no commitment.
Infusion series: Most patients begin with a series of six infusions over 2–3 weeks, lasting 40 min. You’ll relax in a recliner while our staff monitors your vitals. Some people feel relief after the first infusion; others notice gradual improvement over the series.
Integration & aftercare: After each session, we’ll help you process insights (as you wish) and practice anxiety‑reducing tools if needed. Maintenance infusions are scheduled/needed based on your response.
