Ketamine's Revolutionary Applications
Prioritize Your Mental Health
Various medical studies have proven the efficacy of Ketamine administered intravenously. This off-label application has improved depression, anxiety, and severity of various illnesses just after 2 weeks.
Learn Moreboost neuroplasticity
Neuroplasticity represents the ability of the nervous system to change its activity in response to stimuli. In other words, neuroplasticity is our ability to learn new things and enhance existing cognitive abilities. Clinical studies have proven Ketamine therapy enhances structural neuroplasticity and strengthen synaptic connections.

Conventional opioid-based pain management therapies present considerable risks, including respiratory depression, heightened anxiety, and dependency. Conversely, intravenous ketamine, administered in controlled low doses, offers a more effective solution for neuropathic pain relief with reduced associated risks.

FAQ
- Fully tailored experience with advanced protocols and treatments
- We provide the tools and direction to aid each individual patient in achieving their mental and physical health goals
- Our doctor is involved with each patient, adding an additional layer of safety in any treatment you choose.
- Targets Key Brain Chemical: Ketamine works by targeting a key chemical in the brain called glutamate, which affects memory and learning
- Promotes Brain Cell Growth: It's also thought to affect brain cell growth and function. This can help change negative thought patterns that contribute to depression
- Boosts Brain Function: By giving a boost to the glutamatergic system (the system that glutamate is part of), it may help people struggling with depression to feel like their brain is working more harmoniously
- Fast-Acting: Unlike standard antidepressants which generally take several weeks to provide relief, ketamine can provide rapid relief of depression symptoms, lasting for days to weeks
- Intravenous (IV): This is the most common and preferred method, especially in anesthesia and emergency settings. It allows for rapid onset of action and precise control over dosing
- Intramuscular (IM): This is an alternative when IV access is difficult or impractical. It offers relatively rapid absorption and onset of action.
- Check-Up: Doctors make sure you're safe to receive ketamine and explain the process to you
- Getting Ready: A needle is put into a vein, usually in your arm, and your heart rate and blood pressure are watched closely
- Ketamine Preparation: The ketamine is prepared and watered down if needed, then given through a machine that controls how fast it goes into your body
- During the Treatment: You're watched for any signs of sleepiness, feeling like you're not connected to reality, or bad reactions. The speed of the treatment or dose can be changed if needed
- After the Treatment: Once the treatment is done, you're watched until you're fully awake and your heart rate and blood pressure are stable.
- Going Home: Doctors check for any remaining effects, give you instructions for going home, and schedule any follow-up visits if needed
- How They Work: - Ketamine: It works on a chemical in your brain called glutamate. It can provide relief quickly, often within hours to days - Antidepressants (like SSRIs and SNRIs): They work by increasing levels of certain chemicals in your brain. But they usually take several weeks to start working.
- Effectiveness: - Ketamine: It has shown remarkable results, especially for people whose depression hasn't improved with other treatments. It can provide rapid relief, and improvements in mood have been observed in clinical trials. - Antidepressants: They are effective for many people, but the response rates may vary. Some people may need to try different types to find the most suitable one.
- Speed of Relief: - Ketamine: It's known for its fast action, which is valuable for those in immediate distress. - Antidepressants: They generally take several weeks to provide relief.
- Out-of-Body Experience: Some patients have described feeling like they're having an out-of-body experience.
- Altered Perception of Time: Others have said that time seems to move differently, perhaps more quickly or more slowly.
- Changed Reality Perception: Some people mention that their perception of reality is altered. For example, people might look unusually tall or the sound of their voice might seem different.
- Sense of Calm and Relaxation: Many people compare taking ketamine for depression to a psychedelic "trip". While the experience is different for everyone, many people feel a sense of overwhelming calm and relaxation.
- Immediate Relief: Ketamine can provide rapid relief from depression symptoms, often within hours to days. This is a significant advantage over traditional antidepressants, which can take weeks to start working.
- Long-Term Relief: The relief from depression symptoms can last for days to weeks after treatment. Regular infusions have shown response rates as high as 70%
- Potential for Long-Term Brain Health: Some researchers believe that ketamine may help reverse damage to brain cell connections caused by chronic stress. This could potentially protect against depression relapse
