About Ketamine Therapy

Ketamine is an FDA-approved anesthetic that, at lower doses, can rapidly relieve symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD, and chronic pain. It works by modulating the brain’s glutamate system and promoting synaptic growth and plasticity—essentially “rebooting” parts of the brain involved in mood and perception.

Yes, when administered by trained professionals in a monitored setting, ketamine therapy is very safe. It has been used in clinical practice for decades and is now supported by growing research in mental health and pain management.

Treatment Options

We offer:

  • Intravenous (IV) Ketamine Infusions
  • Intramuscular (IM) Ketamine Injections
  • Compounded Nasal Ketamine Sprays 
Compounded Nasal Ketamine is a specially prepared spray that delivers ketamine through the nasal passages. It is often used for maintenance after initial in-clinic treatment or for those unable to access infusion therapy regularly. While not FDA-approved in this form, it is prescribed by physicians and filled by compounding pharmacies under strict clinical oversight.

Treatment Course & Expectations

Most patients start with a series of 6 infusions over 2–3 weeks, followed by maintenance treatments as needed. Nasal ketamine may be introduced after this induction phase for ongoing symptom control. Nasal ketamine can also be used in place of IV ketamine therapy with the same treatment schedule.

Some patients feel better within hours of their first treatment, especially those with depression or suicidal ideation. For others, it may take several sessions to notice improvement.

Side Effects & Safety

Mild and temporary side effects may include:

  • Dizziness or lightheadedness
  • Nausea
  • Dissociation (a dreamlike or “out of body” feeling)
  • Increased blood pressure during treatment

These effects usually subside shortly after the session ends.  Our medical professionals will monitor you throughout your treatment and treat these side effects if they were to occur. 

Ketamine can be misused recreationally, but in a clinical setting under controlled doses and medical supervision, the risk of dependence is low.

 Costs & Insurance

Most insurance plans do not cover ketamine for mood disorders, as it is considered an “off-label” use. We can provide superbills for possible out-of-network reimbursement.
Prices vary depending on the route of administration and the condition being treated. An IV mood infusion is $375 while an IV pain infusion is $675.  A compounded nasal ketamine administration is $175.

 Logistics & Preparation

Yes. You should not drive or operate machinery for the rest of the day after your treatment.
We recommend avoiding food for at least 4 hours and liquids for 2 hours prior to your session to reduce nausea risk.
