Ketamine is a fast-acting antidepressant that relieves depressive symptoms in hours instead of the weeks or longer that previous drugs required. In addition to being a major advance in treatment, ketamine provides an opportunity for researchers to investigate the short- and long-term biological changes underlying its effects on depression.
In a nutshell, Ketamine works by increasing connections between your brain cells (neurons), thereby increasing the functional capacity of the brain. Ketamine also increases the efficiency and efficacy of nerve conduction within each neuron. These two mechanisms of action are achieved by dendritic spine elongation as well as myelin sheath production.
An additional way Ketamine works is through the “journey” one has. This is especially important for individuals with PTSD, because one can process past trauma in a gentle way. This is not to be confused with EMDR therapy, which can be dysphoric. The processing during a Ketamine journey is easier and often deeper, with the individual feeling distant from the trauma, yet able to process it.

What Our Clients Say
I had read about the benefits of Ketamine for dealing with intractable depression. I've been depressed for several years and tried every medication possible; both on and off-label. Nothing provided me with any relief. So I decided to give Ketamine a try. Making that decision and going to the Ketamine Healing Clinic was one of the best decisions in my life. The Ketamine infusions did indeed relieve my depression and after several weeks, I'm still feeling much more optimistic and hopeful; and actually accomplishing more than I did when I was depressed.

Ketamine is practically a lifesaver for me. I’ve been diagnosed with and suffering from severe depression for almost 10 years now. I have been prescribed numerous medications and treatments prescribed by my psychiatrist. Unfortunately, none of the medication cocktails worked for me... I decided to try Ketamine in April of this year. The initial treatment consisted of 6 infusions and after the first 3, I felt that my depressive episodes were becoming less frequent, less in intensity, and shorter in duration. I completed the remaining 3 infusions and opted for a monthly maintenance infusion. After 2 months, I noticed a huge positive change in my mood and somehow felt more aware and connected once again to my family. My wife would always mention that I was more “present”, especially around our daughter. More importantly, the suicidal thoughts were virtually gone.

I did 5 ketamine infusions initially and have back many times after. This changed my LIFE! I'm am a better father, husband, friend and a more functional member of society. I highly encourage anyone experiencing anxiety, depression and general going through a hard time, you must try this. It was amazing and the Dr and staff made me feel so comfortable. I am so grateful to them and my 4 kids and beautiful wife are even more thankful for they got their dad back. I know this may sound cheesy but I actually teared up as I write this. Stay safe and always remember to never be scared to get help.
