Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is Ketamine Therapy?

Ketamine Therapy for Depression, PTSD, Suicidal Ideation, Postpartum Depression, and Anxiety involves the administration of a low-dose or sub-anesthetic amount of Ketamine via intravenous (IV) infusion. Ketamine Therapy for mental health conditions has been shown to be approximately 70-80% effective in reducing the symptoms associated with mood disorders.  Symptom relief can last for days, weeks, or even months, but it is important to note that Ketamine is not a permanent fix or cure. For continued relief, booster infusions are needed.  The length of time between these booster infusions does vary based on each individuals response.

What types of conditions are treated with Ketamine Therapy?

Ketamine Therapy is used to treat certain mental health and pain disorders that are resistant to standard or traditional medications. These mental health and pain disorders include: Depression, Anxiety, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Suicidal Thoughts, Postpartum Depression, Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), Fibromyalgia and other Neuropathies (nerve related pain). 

Is Ketamine Therapy safe?

The low doses of Ketamine administered in the office setting, virtually eliminates all potential for addiction or abuse.  During Ketamine infusion, blood pressure and heart rate may increase, therefore patients with uncontrolled blood pressure, unstable heart disease, untreated thyroid disease should not use Ketamine. Patients with active substance abuse, active psychosis, or patients who are currently experiencing the manic phase of bipolar disease should not use Ketamine. Ketamine is contraindicated during pregnancy. Patients are monitored closely while receiving an infusion to ensure safety. Long-term safety studies of repeated ketamine infusions have not been published.
