Why does PTSD suddenly flare up?
Your brain records all of the details surrounding the traumatic event, including the sights, sounds, smells, and your feelings at the moment. These details become the things that trigger your PTSD, but since they're stored in your subconscious, you're not fully aware of them.
When you suddenly encounter a detail similar to those in your memory, it triggers a surge of emotions. In some cases, the intense emotions compel you to take action that may not be appropriate.
How is PTSD treated?
Therapy remains one of the primary treatments for PTSD, but at Oasis Therapeutics, it’s not the only effective option.
The providers at Oasis Therapeutics may recommend cutting-edge treatments such as ketamine infusions, stellate ganglion blocks or transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to help alleviate PTSD-related symptoms. Ketamine is a medication that rapidly restores the brain chemicals needed to regulate your mood.
Your PTSD treatment at Oasis Therapeutics may also include integrative therapies. For example, your symptoms may improve with acupuncture, massage, mindfulness meditation, or stellate ganglion blocks.
Not all treatments offered are FDA-approved for treatment of PTSD. IV ketamine infusion and TMS for treatment of PTSD are considered off-label use and are not covered by insurance.
