What is Ketamine Treatment?
Ketamine is a relatively new and innovative psychiatric/psychological treatment approach, involving ketamine administration in a safe and supportive setting.
The exact nature of the treatment process varies depending on the particular problems being treated and the specific individual’s needs and goals. Initial sessions will involve an evaluation of a patient’s: current problems, concerns, and needs; prior history and review of current or ongoing treatment; overall health/medical condition; and an assessment of the potential suitability and viability of this type of treatment for that patient. By the end of the evaluation period, we will offer our clinical impressions and a recommended approach to treatment. These goals will be reviewed during the course of the treatment in order to assess and/or modify them according to changing needs, perspectives, and progress.
Why Ketamine?
Current treatments for depression including medication usually have a 40% success rate. To make matters worse these medications do not reduce suicidal thoughts. They must be taken daily and cause unwanted weight gain and other ongoing side effects. This is a time consuming and frustrating process for depressed patients. By contrast, ketamine treatment can reduce or eliminate suicidal thoughts, often immediately. It treats depression rapidly, with no ongoing side effects.
With ketamine, the effects are more robust than with medications. Ketamine is about 70% effective, it also helps patients with more than just their mood and depression, it seems to help them start over and reconnect with who they are.
Your healing journey awaits
Treatments take place in a calm, comfortable, and carefully monitored environment designed to help you feel safe and at ease. Soft lighting, soothing surroundings, and attentive clinical support create a relaxing experience that allows you to fully focus on rest and reflection. Throughout the process, our Medical Assistants remain present for a supportive experience rather than clinical. Ketamine treatment is both a medical service and a restorative experience that prioritizes what you need every step of the way.
