What is Ketamine Therapy?

Ketamine therapy, a revolutionary mental health treatment, involves administering low doses of ketamine — once used as an anesthetic — under the supervision of trained medical professionals. It’s proven effective for conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mood disorders. In addition to traditional ketamine infusion therapy, we also offer Spravato™ (esketamine nasal spray), a more recent FDA-approved treatment for treatment-resistant depression.

Your Initial Consultation

At Resilience Integrative Wellness, your treatment journey begins with a comprehensive consultation. We evaluate your medical history, current health condition, mental health status, and discuss your treatment goals. This thorough assessment ensures that ketamine therapy is the most suitable treatment for you and allows us to tailor a treatment plan to your unique needs.

The Ketamine Infusion Process

During ketamine infusion therapy, you’ll rest comfortably in a calm and controlled environment. A small intravenous (IV) line will be placed into your arm, through which a controlled dose of ketamine will be administered. Throughout this process, our team of experts will monitor your vital signs to ensure your safety. The infusion session typically lasts 40-60 minutes, and patients often report feelings of relaxation or mild disorientation during the procedure.

The Spravato™ Treatment

Spravato™, or esketamine nasal spray, is another treatment option available at Resilience Integrative Wellness. It’s self-administered under the supervision of a healthcare professional at our clinic. During a Spravato™ treatment, you’ll be monitored for at least two hours post-administration to ensure your safety and observe any possible side effects.

Post-Treatment Experience

After treatment, patients typically need time to rest before going home. It’s important to arrange transportation as driving is not recommended on treatment days. In the days following the treatment, some patients may experience a rapid decrease in depressive symptoms, while for others, improvement may take a few sessions. Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor progress and adjust your treatment plan as necessary.
