Brain & Mental Health

Healing the Brain, Supporting the Mind

Anxiety, depression, brain fog, PTSD and disturbed sleep are approached at SOMA as biology — because mental health is biological too. Testing looks for the physical drivers: neuroinflammation, hormonal imbalance, nutritional deficits and the after-effects of chronic stress. Care is physician-led, in Mumbai and New Delhi, alongside any mental-health care you already receive.

The conditions we manage

Persistent anxiety and low mood, including where therapy and medication have plateaued. Brain fog and declining focus. PTSD and the physical imprint of trauma. Mood instability. And the disturbed sleep that both signals and worsens all of the above.

Why the brain struggles

The brain runs on the same biology as the rest of you. Neuroinflammation dampens mood and cognition; thyroid, cortisol and sex-hormone imbalances mimic or magnify psychiatric symptoms; deficiencies in B12, vitamin D, iron and omega-3s impair neurotransmitter production; blood-sugar instability destabilises mood. When these drivers go unmeasured, treatment fights uphill.

How SOMA investigates brain and mood symptoms

Panels covering inflammation, full thyroid and hormonal function, nutritional status, blood-sugar dynamics and sleep-relevant markers — assembled into a picture of what is feeding the symptom. SOMA's protocols complement psychiatric and psychological care; where you have a psychiatrist or therapist, we work alongside them, not around them.

The markers that matter most

Inflammatory markers such as hs-CRP, full thyroid function, B12, vitamin D and iron status, fasting insulin, and cortisol rhythm — a short list that explains a remarkable share of persistent mood and cognition complaints when it goes unexamined.

How we support brain and mind

Depending on your results: correction of the deficits and imbalances testing reveals, IV nutrient therapy and NAD+ IV therapy where cellular energy and nutritional status are implicated, low-dose ketamine therapy for screened candidates where conventional approaches have plateaued, and sleep and lifestyle restructuring as the base. Each tool is physician-selected; ketamine in particular is offered only after strict screening.

The sequence

Correct the deficits first — they're the cheapest wins and everything else works better after. Stabilise sleep and blood sugar. Then, where indicated and screened, the targeted therapies. The order matters: infusions on an inflamed, depleted baseline underperform.

What clients notice

Clearer thinking, steadier mood, better sleep, and more capacity for the psychological work that biology was undermining. Individual results vary; SOMA supports the biology of mental health and does not replace psychiatric care.

Common questions

Common drivers include neuroinflammation, thyroid and hormonal imbalance, B12 and vitamin D deficiency, poor sleep, and blood-sugar instability. Brain fog is a signal, not a diagnosis — testing identifies which drivers apply to you, which is where SOMA starts.

Yes. Thyroid dysfunction, hormonal shifts, chronic inflammation and nutritional deficits can produce or worsen anxiety and low mood. SOMA tests for these contributors and corrects what it finds — alongside, never instead of, mental-health care.

No. SOMA addresses the biological contributors to mental-health symptoms and works alongside your existing psychiatrist or therapist. Where protocols such as low-dose ketamine are considered, screening and coordination with your ongoing care are part of the process.

Conventional care often treats the symptom directly; SOMA additionally measures what may be driving it — inflammation, hormones, nutrition, sleep — and corrects those foundations, so other treatments work on firmer ground.

Your biology has the answers. Let’s ask it the right questions.
