The Future Of Ketamine Treatment Is Expanding Well Beyond Depression.
While ketamine is best known for treating treatment-resistant depression, research is rapidly exploring its role in many other conditions, including:
• PTSD and complex trauma
• Anxiety disorders
• OCD
• Substance use disorders
• Chronic pain syndromes
• End-of-life anxiety
• Eating disorders (early research)
• Healthcare worker burnout (pilot programs)
Perhaps the biggest shift isn't a new diagnosis—it's a new way of thinking about treatment.
Rather than viewing ketamine as simply a medication, clinicians are increasingly using it as a catalyst for psychotherapy. The medicine may create a temporary window of increased neuroplasticity and openness to change, but lasting improvement depends on careful preparation, skilled therapeutic support, and thoughtful integration afterward.
At Be Well San Miguel, we believe that ketamine is rarely the whole treatment. It is often the beginning of a deeper process of healing, insight, and lasting change.
Many of these emerging applications remain under active investigation and are not yet considered standard treatments. As always, care should be individualized and evidence-based.
If you would like more information on local opportunities for ketamine treatment contact Deborah at BewellsanMiguel.com or whats app +52-415-115-7815

A healthcare update for the San Miguel community:

Many of you know Dr. Emilio Ramírez, who has been a trusted colleague of Be Well San Miguel for nearly a decade. During that time, he has provided outstanding medical care while serving in leadership roles at several local hospitals and as head of critical care services for IMSS facilities in the region.

Dr. Ramírez has recently stepped down as Head of the Emergency Department at MAC Hospital and is beginning a new chapter as an independent physician.

He will continue to see patients in consultation and provide hospital care at both Hospital Joya and Hospital MAC. This change will allow him to focus more directly on patient care while continuing to serve the San Miguel community.

We congratulate Dr. Ramírez on this exciting transition and look forward to continuing our long collaboration in support of patients and their families.

— Deborah Bickel, Be Well San Miguel

🧠 New Research

Ketamine not only relieves treatment-resistant depression, but may also:
✨ Increase social pleasure
✨ Enhance empathy
✨ Support deeper emotional connection

(American Journal of Psychiatry)

💛 Why It Matters

Empathy allows us to connect, understand, and care.
When disrupted—as in depression—it can lead to loneliness and disconnection.

There are currently no approved medications specifically designed to enhance empathy.

🌿 A New Path

Ketamine-assisted therapy may help restore both mood and human connection.

What Clients Say
We have been using the services of Be Well San Miguel since 2016 and have never been disappointed. Deborah has been our go to person for all things health related.. Over the years she has directed us to the best of physicians, and medical facilities. Most important to us is how responsive Deborah is and we are comforted by the fact that we can turn to her and the rest of her bilingual colleagues and staff in an emergency. Be Well ] has always been very responsive . Through Be Well we have completed advanced medical directives as well as putting an emergency plan in place in the event that something goes wrong. We view Be Well’s services as an insurance policy. We consider joining Be Well was one of the smartest moves we have made since we began coming to San Miguel de Allende. (Kiran) 2025

“I have had health challenges from long COVID—fatigue, vertigo, overall weakness. With Deborah’s guidance and referrals to both medical and alternative care, I improved significantly within a month. There are so many services available. Next, we’re putting an advance directive in place—because what you have in the U.S. doesn’t work here. Deborah has deep knowledge of the system and is an exceptional advocate. I’m so grateful she was recommended to me.”
— Cynthia C, 2023
“I’d put myself in Deborah’s hands for anything health-related in San Miguel. She’s the best.”
