What Is Bipolar Disorder?
Bipolar disorder, also known as manic depression, is a mental health disorder that causes extreme mood swings. The mood swings occur on a sliding scale, meaning they can include extreme emotional highs (mania) or intense lows (depression).
Bipolar disorder is a condition that consists of manic or depressive episodes. Someone with bipolar disorder often isn’t aware of when they are in the midst of an episode, nor can they often feel when one is coming on.
At Restoring Wellness Solutions, we know how quickly this condition can become debilitating if left untreated. That’s why we are committed to treating not just the symptoms, but the underlying condition in our patients as well.

How Ketamine Treats Bipolar Disorder
Many traditional treatment options take weeks or months for the patient to feel its effects. For some, the relief never comes. That’s where ketamine infusion therapy differs.
“Researchers believe that ketamine works by causing the release of molecules in your brain that create new communication pathways between your neurons.”
Ketamine treatment works by interacting with the NMDA receptor and glutamate – two parts of the brain essential for communication and connection. For people who have tried different methods to treat their condition to no avail, ketamine infusions may be a viable option.
