Manlove Brain and Body Health

At Rapid City's Manlove Brain and Body Health, patients with anxiety and depression can find relief from their symptoms with ketamine therapy. The health center offers patients as well as esketamine, a nasal spray. People who have tried more than two antidepressants have been encouraged to explore ketamine as a treatment option. This is because it has been proven to be effective in many who suffer from treatment-resistant mood disorders. Manlove Body and Brain Health is led by Dr. Stephen Manlove. He is board-certified in psychiatry, forensic psychiatry, neurology, and internal medicine. After decades of treating people with depression and anxiety, Dr. Manlove decided to step outside of traditional therapies to help those that couldn't find relief using standard practice. He researched and found that it was a viable option to be introduced into his clinic. From there, he saw many of his patients healing from this breakthrough form of treatment.
