Why is PK technique different from other anesthesia options?

There is no other anesthetic technique that so often leaves patients with a sense of happiness and well being as does Dr. Friedberg's PK technique. Elective cosmetic surgery is about increasing one's sense of personal happiness which matches very well with the happiness experienced from PK technique. Patients have been quite enthusiastic in their response to PK, especially those with less than happy previous anesthetic experiences.

The use of opioids (narcotic medications like morphine, Demerol, fentanyl) are a common practice for pain relief in anesthesia. Opioids are associated with a 15-40 percent incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). By providing non-opioid analgesia (pain relief), PK technique has essentially eliminated PONV from patient recovery.
