PTSD Treatment at Integrity Pain & Wellness
Compassionate, Integrative Care for PTSD Recovery
At Integrity Pain and Wellness, with clinics in Scottsdale, Mesa, Glendale, and Prescott, AZ, we understand the profound impact of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) on your life. As a board-certified physician in pain medicine and anesthesiology, with residency training at Johns Hopkins and fellowship training at Mayo Clinic, I, Amit Patel, MD, am passionate about helping PTSD patients reclaim their peace and vitality through innovative, compassionate care. Having faced my own struggles with suffering, I bring deep empathy to our practice’s mission, offering advanced treatments like Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB) and Ketamine Infusion Therapy, combined with a holistic, integrative approach tailored to your unique needs.
Why Choose Integrity Pain and Wellness for PTSD?
PTSD can manifest as anxiety, intrusive memories, chronic pain, or emotional numbness, often disrupting your ability to live fully. At our clinics in Scottsdale, Mesa, Glendale, and Prescott, AZ, we don’t just treat symptoms—we partner with you to address the root causes of trauma, fostering lasting healing across body, mind, and spirit. Our approach is informed by rigorous medical training, a trusted network of specialists, and a commitment to holistic care. Whether you’re navigating trauma from past experiences or recent challenges, we’re here to guide you toward recovery with expertise and compassion.
Innovative Treatments: Stellate Ganglion Block and Ketamine Infusion
We offer two advanced, evidence-based treatments to help reset the nervous system and alleviate PTSD symptoms:
- Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB): This minimally invasive procedure involves injecting a local anesthetic into the stellate ganglion, a cluster of nerves in the neck that regulates the body’s fight-or-flight response. My board certification in pain medicine ensures precise, image-guided delivery, maximizing safety and efficacy in reducing hyperarousal, anxiety, and intrusive thoughts, often within hours (Lipov et al., 2020, Journal of Trauma and Dissociation).
- Ketamine Infusion Therapy: Low-dose ketamine infusions, administered in a controlled medical setting, promote neuroplasticity to reduce depression, anxiety, and chronic pain, often within days (Feder et al., 2014, JAMA Psychiatry). My board certification in anesthesiology ensures safe IV administration and monitoring, tailoring protocols for optimal outcomes.
During a personalized consultation at one of our Scottsdale, Mesa, Glendale, or Prescott clinics, our team of providers will discuss whether SGB, Ketamine Infusion, or a combination is best suited to your needs. While I strive to meet most PTSD patients personally, you may also work with another skilled provider in our practice. Our goal is to empower you with clear, evidence-based information, ensuring you feel confident and supported in your treatment plan.
Integrative Healing: A Network of Holistic Support
Healing from PTSD is a deeply personal journey, and every individual resonates with different therapies. At Integrity Pain and Wellness, we’ve built a trusted network of specialists to provide comprehensive, integrative care, complementing SGB and Ketamine Infusion with therapies tailored to your physical, emotional, and spiritual needs:
- Evidence-Based Therapies: Collaborate with experts in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) to process trauma, reframe negative thought patterns, and build emotional resilience.
- Complementary and Alternative Therapies: Partner with practitioners in Five Element Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Ayurveda, and, where legally appropriate, plant medicine to address trauma’s energetic and spiritual dimensions, supporting physical vitality and emotional healing.
- Personalized Guidance: During and after treatment, our team works closely with you to identify ongoing integrative therapies that resonate most, whether it’s somatic movement, meditation, or trauma-focused counseling
