The precise mechanisms are not fully understood, but ketamine is believed to impact neurotransmitters in the brain. Chronic anxiety and depression change the brain and stop neurons from creating new connections. Thus, the brain gets stuck in painful thought patterns. Ketamine can help repair the damage of anxiety and depression by creating new neural connections and helping the brain remain flexible.

Individuals often report rapid relief, sometimes within hours or days after treatment. 

While ketamine is generally considered safe, some individuals may experience side effects such as nausea, hallucinations, or disorientation during and shortly after treatment. 

Ketamine treatment may not be recommended for individuals with certain medical conditions or a history of substance abuse. 

The duration of benefits varies among individuals. Some may experience long-lasting relief, while others may require maintenance sessions.

While Ketamine is approved by the FDA as an anesthesia drug, it is not yet approved by the FDA for psychiatric or pain treatment. Ketamine therapy for these conditions is considered an Off Label use. This is a common medication status -- a large percentage of medication prescribed in the United States is for “off label” use.

At this time, we are serving residents of Arizona only.
