Absolutely loved working with the Better U Team, especially Megan! The new services like NAD+ and glutathione injections are awesome. Ketamine therapy is great for chronic stress, a good reset. Highly recommend!

Skeptic turned believer
I am someone who works in technology and I really applaud the BetterU customer care staff for getting back to me in 24 hours but most of the the time even less than that. We’ve even implemented some of their practices among our own customers.
This medication has given me my life back. I have several autoimmune pain conditions and doing this once a week releases some of the stress and cortisol which makes the pain more tolerable.
Even those who were skeptical of me trying this program have commented on the benefits, energy and positivity returning to me. I would like to say a special thank you to Callie and Michael for assisting me with their questions along with the full BetterU customer care staff and doctors.

Background:
I suffer from PTSD and anxiety disorder. My PTSD becomes debilitating. I work in spurts of 6-8 months before I become triggered, overwhelmed, and debilitated leaving me unable to work. I usually spend 3-4 months healing myself before I am able to work. I can only work night shift when there’s less stimuli and I do Private Duty Nursing for one patient to reduce stress. I was in constant fight or flight.
I experienced mood swings, brain fog, memory loss, inability to think of words during conversation, facial twitching, isolation, inability to care for myself, hair loss, chronic constipation, hemorrhoids, teeth grinding, eczema, chronic back pain and tension and in this last year I kept injuring myself. I could go on and on with the symptoms.
Treatment: 8 sessions for chronic symptoms
When I told my family and friends I would be starting KAT, they were afraid and most thought it was dangerous. I’ve tried many anti depressants, anti anxiety, therapy, lifestyle changes, seminars, environmental changes but “The Body Keeps Score”. My brain had a mind of its own. First session I immediately felt overwhelmed with love. I felt loving and the love for others; a feeling I wasn’t sure I’d be able to get back. Immediately the mood swings went away. Even my dogs calmed down. They were in fight or flight with me. Following sessions I experienced the neurospasticity effects (activation inactive parts of my brain). I saw lights streaking through my brain. During one session I was every element: sand, gas, wind, a molecule- left there just existing. I understood all the elements and life inside me to create me and give me life. I became grateful for my life. My latest session I gained insight to the person I am to present to the world and who I want to be. Love. I want to be presented to the world as love. I will encounter unhealed people but I am not to be shaken. I want insight to my purpose in this world but this session told me to love my nieces and be present for them. For now, that’s who I need to be. I look forward completing my second cycle.
My best advice is to not resist the experience. Be open to whatever the medicine shows you. Don’t try to control the experience. If you feel uncomfortable just know it Will come to an end. Allow your brain to get what it needs to heal. This treatment is very necessary. I recommend sitting out the troche after 15 min. Do not swallow. I swallowed once and I experienced sensory overload and the effects lasted longer than desired. Better U does a great job preparing you. Read and watch all the information. This is not a cure all. I am doing all the work outside of the medicine but this was the missing piece. Do your meditations, walk daily if possible, journal, set your intentions, eat clean, nourish your brain, take your supplements, create a routine, do all the things to ground you and make you a better person.
Happy healing! 🫶🏽

When I made the decision to try…
When I made the decision to try psychedelic therapy it took several tries to find a provider that worked for me but are you care made everything easy and understandable from the beginning they were not pushy or hard to understand the equipped me with plenty of knowledge to start this journey and have been there to support me each step of the way. Psychedelic therapy has been a huge life changer for me going from crippling anxiety to moderate manageable anxiousness on occasion and I recommend this to anybody that is having any trouble dealing with any aspect of their mental health contact better you and let them help you you won't regret it these treatment options need to be talked about and people need to realize that there is something out there besides traditional medications that don't work that can help you live and more fulfilling life and deal with life's turns without feeling alone.

From the beginning until my last…
From the beginning until my last session, the staff was super profesional, knowledgeable, caring and inspiring. I actually knew everyone who helped me by name. They were lovely. It felt like an extended family in delicate time when I needed support. A the end, all of my intentions were fulfilled and I was healed in manifold ways. Conventional therapy would’ve lasted decades and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
These people CARE ♥️
The product is powerful, gentler and just as deep as psilocybin. It is also convenient because sessions and recovery from them usually last less than two hours. The taste sucks though and I wish they’d come up with something better. I would’ve done it way more often 🤣

How Psychedelic Meditation Should Be
This is how chemically assisted meditation should be done. This is so much better than being in an uncomfortable, unfamiliar office environment that costs twice as much.
Excellent care and straightforward program.

Michael Turek is 10/10
Michael Turek had a candid and empathetic conversation with me. I felt heard and understood and he responded to my goofy personality as well. He’s the best interaction I’ve had with betterU since I’ve been a patient.
