Patient Questions about Advanced Wellness and Pain
This 4-question summary is matched to the protocols and conditions Advanced Wellness and Pain treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored, grounded in our 2026 Ketamine Clinic Intelligence Report.
Is Advanced Wellness and Pain suited for treatment-resistant depression?
Advanced Wellness and Pain treats depression via IV ketamine (off-label, evidence-based). Insurance coverage is rare for IV/KAP — most patients pay out of pocket. TRD is typically defined as two or more prior antidepressant trials without sufficient response — patients meeting that bar are best candidates here.
Does Advanced Wellness and Pain treat chronic pain conditions?
Yes — Advanced Wellness and Pain treats chronic pain. They use IV ketamine for pain, which typically means longer infusion times and higher cumulative doses than mental-health protocols. Common indications include complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), fibromyalgia, and certain neuropathic pain syndromes. Pain pricing varies significantly by structure: per-infusion vs. multi-day inpatient packages — verify how this clinic structures their billing.
Does Advanced Wellness and Pain treat PTSD?
Yes — Advanced Wellness and Pain treats PTSD. Ketamine for trauma differs from depression treatment: dosing is often lower per session, and pairing the protocol with trauma-focused therapy between sessions is common. A reasonable consult question: whether PTSD patients here typically use ketamine alone or alongside an outside therapist.
Can Advanced Wellness and Pain help with anxiety disorders?
Yes — Advanced Wellness and Pain treats anxiety, including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, and panic disorder. The evidence base for ketamine in anxiety is less robust than for depression, but it can be a meaningful option for patients who haven’t responded to SSRIs or benzodiazepines. Worth asking which of their protocols they typically recommend for anxiety-primary patients.
AWAP treated 3 members of our family from June 2022 to September 2022. An amazing journey it has been. The office and private rooms are filled with exceptional original artwork from Alex Grey to local artists and designed to create a perfect setting to allow for a patient to relax into the right mindset to take each journey. Rooms change with each of the 6 sessions and end with the ‘space room’ where a truly out of body experience is the reward for a job well done in healing oneself. The doctors and staff take great care to make each patient feel surrounded in an atmosphere of healing, love and trust. They truly saved lives in our family. Be sure to visit other clinics before AWAP, then call them and ask for a tour of their facility, you’ll know the right choice as soon as you walk in. Thank you to Dr. Leatham, Dr. Sharma, Dr. Wong and of course clinic manager Rose. Be well and remember that ‘the only way out is through’ !!
