Ketamine Infusions
For Neuropathic and Chronic Pain
For some patients, pain is not simply a local problem — it’s a systemic one. The nervous system itself becomes sensitized, amplifying pain signals long after the original injury has healed. Ketamine infusion therapy is one of the most effective tools available to interrupt and reset these dysfunctional pain pathways.
How It Works
Ketamine acts on NMDA receptors in the brain and spinal cord — receptors that play a central role in pain amplification and chronification. At sub-anesthetic doses delivered by IV infusion, ketamine can modulate these pathways, offering relief that other medications cannot achieve. As a board-certified anesthesiologist, Dr. Chabla administers and monitors every infusion directly.
Conditions Ketamine May Help
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)
Fibromyalgia
Neuropathic pain
Chronic low back pain resistant to other treatment
Post-surgical pain syndromes
Central sensitization
What to Expect
Infusions are administered in our office in a calm, monitored environment. Each session typically lasts 45 minutes to several hours depending on protocol. A series of infusions — usually 4–6 over two weeks — is recommended for chronic pain conditions. Patients should plan not to drive afterward. Dr. Chabla will review your full medical history before determining candidacy.
Safety & Oversight
Ketamine infusion therapy requires careful clinical oversight. Dr. Chabla’s training in anesthesiology means every infusion is administered safely, with continuous monitoring throughout.
