Studies show that the prevalence of post -traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in veterans
is 15-20% or more, plus in half of sick together with PTSD also there is a large
Depressive disorder. Meanwhile, traditional first -line treatment (antidepressants and psychotherapy)
It is only effective in about 40% of veterans.

These data emphasize the urgent need for new effective treatments for this disorder. Exactly
Therefore, Expio Medical Center, a leading organization in the development of the latest recovery methods
mental health, begins researching a new method that has already shown its effectiveness in
clinical conditions in our center and abroad:

“Monocenteral randomized double-blind controlled clinical examination of ketamine-assistent integrative psychotherapy in veterans with post -traumatic treatment resistant to
stress disorder (PTSD) ”.

Migraine and depression are closely interconnected, and this bond is much more complicated than simply "chronic pain impairs mood". New studies show that if a person suffers from migraines, then his risk of depression increases 2.5 times! But the most interesting thing is that this connection is bilateral: depression also increases the likelihood of migraine, and also contributes to the fact that headaches become chronic and more difficult to treat.

Our brain constantly creates beliefs - about itself, about the world, about the future. They help us navigate reality. But in depression, this mechanism fails: negative thoughts are fixed, and it seems that it is impossible to change them.

And what if there was a way to restart this process?

In a world where brain injuries and strokes remain one of the main causes of disability, the search for new treatments is not just relevant but critical. Traditional rehabilitation methods have their restrictions, and pharmacological approaches often do not produce the expected result or are accompanied by significant side effects. However, a new player appears on the horizon, who began to be considered not only as a means of expanding consciousness, but also as potential therapeutic tools.

In recent years, psychedelics have gained renewed attention as potential tools for the treatment of various mental disorders, particularly among veterans who face unique psychological challenges. Article “Research and Implementation of Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy in the Veterans Health Administration” (Research and Implementation of Psychedelic Therapy in the Veterans Health Care System), published in the American Journal of Psychiatry, offers an in-depth review of how these substances can be integrated into the health care system of veterans suffering from PTSD. disorder (PTSD), depression and other mental disorders.

Researchers from Arizona University have revealed a new understanding of one of the most common complications faced by patients with Parkinson's disease: uncontrolled movements that occur after years of treatment.

Parkinson's disease - a neurological disorder of the brain, which affects human movements - develops when the level of dopamine, the chemical in the brain responsible for the movement of the body begins to decrease.

To prevent dopamine loss, a drug called Levodopa is introduced, which is later converted to dopamine into a brain. However, prolonged treatment with levodopa causes involuntary and uncontrolled movements known as dyskinesia caused by levodopa.

A study published in a journal Brain, It has found new discoveries about the nature of dyskinesia caused by levodopa, and how ketamine, anesthetic, can help solve this complex condition.

In November 2024 TV channel Public filmed a report about ketamine therapy at the Expio clinic and the prospects for the development of psychedelic medicine in Ukraine.
