Are you a good candidate for Ketamine Therapy?

Ketamine is a fast, effective treatment for depression, anxiety, migraines, post-acute withdrawals as well as chronic regional pain syndrome.

Evidence-based research has developed protocols that have been successful in treating these disorders. Ketamine therapy works best when administered as an IV infusion.

You May NOT be a good candidate for Ketamine Therapy if

If you have a known allergy to ketamine, uncontrolled hypertension (high blood pressure), or schizophrenia, ketamine therapy is not for you.

For this therapy to work for mental health, the patient must have an attitude of desire to feel better. The only patients we have seen not respond positively to this treatment are patients that were not fully commited to feeling better.

Requirements for Ketamine Therapy:

In order to be in compliance with regulations, a qualifying diagnosis (mental health and/or chronic pain) is required for ketamine therapy. We must be able to confirm that diagnosis though contact with your diagnosing physician. We do not diagnose patients in our office.

What to expect from your treatments:

In order for your therapy to be successful we have taken extra steps to create a therapeutic and safe environment for your infusions.

It is VERY IMPORTANT that you have transportation arranged. You will not be able to drive for several hours after your infusion. Make sure to arrange for transportation to and from our office.

You will receive your infusion in one of our very comfortable rooms. We take great care to make this experience therapeutic from beginning to end.

We encourage you to bring some soothing and uplifting music to listen to during your infusion. A good set of earbuds can make a big difference in your overall experience. Our rooms are equipped with headphones, however earbuds tend to be more comfortable and using your own is always best.

Infusions are given in a comfortable reclining chair. Once you are all hooked up to the infusion pump and vitals monitor, we will dim the lights and give you time to enjoy the treatment experience. We will be checking in on you throughout your treatment, but we will take great care not to disturb you.

For loved ones staying in the room with you. This experience is very personal, and it is imperative that this time be calm and quiet. We recommend that loved ones not engage in conversation with patients while under ketamine. This will pull them out of their psychedelic experience. It is, however, ok to hold a hand, and offer reassurance that the patient is safe and loved when necessary.

As with any medication, side effects are possible. If you experience any unusual sensations or feelings after an infusion, please contact us. It is very important to complete the infusion protocol before making any judgments about how well it is working for you.

for your Success, we recommend...

Before your Ketamine Treatment

Arrange for transportation to and from your appointments with someone you feel safe traveling with. Our building has several lead-lined walls, and getting Uber or Lyft from this building has proven to be very challenging.
Make yourself a playlist of uplifting music. This will enhance your ketamine experience. A good pair of noise cancelling earbuds can help to filter out any distractions during your infusion. We encourage you to listen to soothing music during your infusions.
Consider adding IV Nutrition to your treatment protocol. Often vitamin and mineral deficiencies exacerbate depression symptoms. You may have better results if your whole body is getting nourished. Ask us about adding IV Nutrition to your protocol. We often run special exclusive discounts for our Ketamine patients.

During your Ketamine Treatment

The dosage of ketamine that you will be getting is lower than what is given in surgery. Your dose is determined by your weight and medical history. You will not be unconscious during your treatments.
You may experience unusual images and thoughts. Most often they are not unpleasant, just unusual. If your experience does become unpleasant, let us know. We will be monitoring your treatment the entire time.
If you have a loved one with you, we ask that they not try to verbally interact with you during your treatment. The ketamine works best when you are able to separate yourself from the outside world during the infusion.

After Your Ketamine Treatment

Immediately following your treatment, you will feel impaired for a few hours. This feeling will pass. For some, eating a meal helps.
Ketamine can increase your appetite.
The 24 hours following your treatment might feel as though you have little or no benefit. It takes a day or two for the effects to be noticed. Have patience.
We do not recommend that you make any life changing, or major decisions within 48 hours of a treatment.
Have a trusted friend or loved one remind you of the above statements if you start feeling your depression/anxiety symptoms return.
During this time, new neural pathways are rapidly developing in your brain. We encourage you to take positive actions that will encourage healthy, positive neural pathways. We recommend daily meditation, exercise, healthy eating, and surround yourself with positive people and influences. We recommend that you minimize your exposure to social media, news, and negative influences.
We highly recommend that you consider integration counseling alongside your treatments. If you currently do not have a counselor, we have a few good ones to recommend.

Protocols

Ketamine for Alcoholism and Addiction

For many, ketamine can be very helpful in breaking the craving for alcohol, cigarettes, and/or narcotics. This protocol often only requires a single IV ketamine treatment lasting about an hour. T In cases where there are such underlying mental health issues, we recommend the Mental Health Protocol.

Mental Health Protocol

The accepted protocol for treating mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other trauma related issues is 6 IV Infusions over the course of 2-3 weeks. Each infusion lasts about an hour with a total time of 2 hours in our office. The infusions are spaced out every couple of days. It is important to complete this protocol within the time specified in order to attain the maximum benefit. Some patients may require booster infusions post completion.

*Per Infusion Price $450

6 Infusion Protocol is $2500 (When paid in-full by the second appointment)

Chronic Pain Protocol

The protocol for chronic pain is more intensive. This protocol requires 5 infusions (completed within 2 weeks) that last approximately 3 hours. This protocol calls for a higher dose of ketamine, and it requires about 1 hour of recovery after the infusion. Often, patients may require a booster infusion every 6-8 weeks.

Chronic Pain Protocol is $4000 (When paid in-full at first appointment)

*Per Infusion Price is $850

* If you do not complete your protocol

Ketamine therapy can be very beneficial for treating the conditions we mentioned. Following the recommended protocols is the best way to achieve maximum benefit. We encourage you to complete the entire protocol by offering a discount for paying upfront for your entire protocol. If you are unable to complete your protocol, you will be charged the per infusion price for the infusions that you complete plus any processing fees. The remaining balance will be refunded to you. You also have the option of donating your remaining infusions to our First Responder Fund.

Our response to the media surrounding Ketamine's involvement

Ketamine is a very safe and effective medicine, when used properly

It is our sincere belief that ketamine did not kill Matthew Perry. We hesitate to blame any substance but the irresponsible use of it. Ketamine, when given in a controlled environment, by trained anesthesia professionals, is very safe. So safe that is it used for children and animals during surgery. Mr Perry was killed by his addictions and the people who supported them. It is a disservice to all of those who have been helped tremendously by this therapy to blame one drug when there were several different drugs in his system at the time of his death. It wasn't just the one medicine that killed him. He died from the combination of drugs and the choice to get into a hot tub and fall unconscious. It was the fact that these medications were not administered in a controlled setting, under the direct supervision of a trained anesthesia provider. It was irresponsibility and addiction that killed Mr. Perry, not ketamine.
