Ketamine Overview
Ketamine is an FDA-approved anesthetic that, at low doses, has shown rapid antidepressant and pain-relief properties by modulating glutamate in the brain and creating new neural connections.
Ketamine in Action
Low-dose Ketamine infusions promote neuroplasticity ā helping āresetā the brainās response to mood and pain signals. Many patients experience a lift in mood or relief from physical discomfort within hours to days.
Expected Results
While every patient is unique, some notice a significant reduction in depressive symptoms or pain after just one infusion. A typical program includes 6 sessions over 2ā3 weeks, followed by maintenance infusions every 1ā3 months.
