Scenic City Neurotherapy and Ketamine Center

“My review is coming from the perspective of someone who has witnessed two people I care about deeply heal under Charles and his team's care. 1. My mother-in-law began ketamine treatments over a year ago. In all the time I've known her, I've never seen a transformation so distinctive in my life. She has experienced more difficulty than anyone should in their life, and to witness the person she's become, not just for my wife but for her grandchildren, has been really special. 2. My wife has been getting treatments, and I've absolutely loved the results I have witnessed as well. I am signed up to begin my own treatments in the weeks ahead. My wife and I both experienced a very difficult health scare with our son. It is so great to know that small cities like Chattanooga have access to incredible care and professionals like Scenic City Neurotherapy.”

“Scenic City Neurotherapy has given me the care and relief that has eluded me for a decade. I've struggled with depression and anxiety and tried literally every thing under the sun, from lifestyle changes to prescriptions. Things here and there moved the needle to be sure, but nothing actually pulled me out of the pit, and kept me there, until I found this clinic. Ketamine therapy is life changing, Scenic City Neurotherapy provides it with genuine with care, attentiveness, and sincerity. I could not recommend it enough. They also charge a lot less than other clinics. It is still a financial burden to be sure, but that's not their doing. I hope I can manage to continue treatment despite the expense.”

“I'm a person who looks for both the quality of the service and the character of the people running the place. And Scenic City Neuro blows me away on both fronts. On the service side of things, this is the place setting the standard for Ketamine treatment and has done incredible amounts of due diligence to make sure we know what ketamine can do and how it should be used. On the owner side of things, Ami and Charles are two of the most wholehearted people I have met and I am so grateful they are using their energy here in Chattanooga to make a difference.”

“⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ This is not a cure!! I normally do not leave reviews containing personal information but I believe its important and worth sharing. I have waited a month since my last session in an attempt to leave a fair review. If you've made it to this review, let's be honest, you're hurting and looking for a solution. Knowing where you are, I'll be as honest and thorough as possible. If you're like me you have been suffering from depression, anxiety, PTSD, etc since you were young. You've been to therapy, been on medications, changed your environment, changed partners, set lofty goals of resolution, been labeled different things by different professionals,cold turkeyed the medications because they make you feel ( insert side effects here), purchased self hell/help books, you have detrimentally self medicated with substances, people, addictions, etc in your own effort to regulate your chemicals and grab some dopamine. You've had fleeting moments/days that you felt "normal " and "IT" was not lurking above you like a storm cloud . You remember these days because your immediate thought was " I feel too good. How bad is this low going to be tomorrow? Tonight!?" If you're also like me and from the South, you have been dunked, dipped, sprinkled, washed, baptized and probably still have an anointed prayer cloth in your pillowcase... yet the " Devil" and his minions still manage to drag you back into depression. By now you are also hosting a nasty brain parasite called the inner critic. It's the voice that's louder than all the others , it's awake 24/7, and it's wide open like the Waffle House next to a strip club at 2am. It's only purpose in life is to constantly Remind You and Grind You . It gnaws at you with " you're not good enough, you're unworthy, unlovable, untouchable, without value " and my personal favourite " This is hopeless. Why go on?" If you identified with any or most of what I wrote above, keep reading and I'm proud of you. I can't believe you and I have managed to live this long. If you didn't identify, the rest will bore you. For me, after treatment has felt like a 90 day crash course in Buddhism or stoicism. All the thoughts I had been looping and attaching emotions to suddenly became less pronounced and overwhelming. I can now see the thought, be present with it , but not be guided by the emotions the mental narrative is creating. I am able to get out of bed and practice active daily living.(Bathe, brush teeth, eat) My racing thoughts are manageable. My suicidal ideations are rarely present. Hopelessness no longer hovers for long periods. My emotions feel regulated without severe ups and downs. The inner critic is present, but the volume has been significantly turned down. It's lifted depression's foot off my neck long enough for me to start putting mental hygiene in place. That sounds amazing, but you said ITS NOT A CURE. Because it's not, it's a TOOL, a catalysts. Ketamine stimulates the brain and promotes growth of new pathways. It begins reconnecting and communicating with itself again. It's a soft reboot to help the brain identify missing updates or recover saved passwords. It's a great tool, but there are other required tools in the box. So, I mentioned mental hygiene. What is it? Along with the treatments I have a daily routine, not to be missed that includes meditation , grounding exercises in nature with physical activity, gratitude journaling, and seeing a therapist every (2) two weeks. I have committed to my mental health and well being, instead of being a helpless onlooker. The staff at Scenic are solid , caring people. Charles Miller is very knowledgeable, honest and meets you where you are in life's process. I could talk to him for hours about the brain. Brian is amazing and genuinely cares about people who are suffering. Connie is always warm and kind. This process has given me hope at life again. Isn't that why you read this review in the first place? Call Scenic for the consult. Charles will shoot you straight if they can help. All the best in healing.”
