Chronic Pain Treatments

The  infusion therapies we use, are an injectable drug for severe anxiety, has potential side effects. The infusions can cause nausea, vomiting, high blood pressure, or perceptual disturbances such as highly vivid colors, textures, noises, a slowed perception of time, and sounds perceived as more muffled than usual. If taken in higher doses, they could also lead to perceived blindnesses, jerkiness, feeling like you're floating around space, seeing things from different perspectives, confusion, intense feelings, a sense of self-awareness, dissociation, and a personality shift.

To grasp the distinctions between various types of infusion therapies, it's essential to first understand enantiomers. Enantiomers are mirror images of each other—similar but not identical. When paired, they form a stereoisomer.

Our infusion therapy utilizes two specific enantiomers that, when combined, create a complete stereoisomer. The full stereoisomer is offered through our IV infusions, providing a comprehensive therapeutic experience. Additionally, certain intranasal sprays focus on one specific enantiomer, offering a targeted approach.

You might be wondering which infusion therapy is the best fit for your needs. Both types of therapies we offer are effective, and current studies do not definitively show one to be superior. However, many healthcare professionals consider IV infusions to be advantageous for several reasons:

• The method offers 100% bioavailability.
• Treatment can be paused at any time.
• The dosage can be easily adjusted.
• It allows for the minimal effective dose (the smallest amount of medication needed for the most significant benefit).
• The practitioner knows the exact amount being administered to your system.

Your healthcare provider will prescribe the most suitable treatment for you. The ideal dosage will be calculated based on your weight in kilograms and will start at the lowest possible dose. Follow-up treatments may involve gradual dosage increases until you achieve the minimal effective dose.

The length of the infusion depends on the content and the procedure. Some may take as little as thirty minutes; others take as much as four hours. 

Our therapy works by blocking specific pain receptors in your brain. At the same time, it resets some of the nerve cells in your brain and spine. This interaction makes it more effective at reducing some types of pain than traditional treatments.

Canyon Pain and Wellness will provide the infusion therapy on-site in our office through an intravenous (IV) line. Treatment usually takes 30 minutes to three hours, depending on the condition.

Patients typically report relief during or after their first session. You can expect more sustained relief after two to three sessions.

There are no known long-term side effects to infusion therapies, and the short-term effects are well tolerated and usually dissipate within a day.
