What is Ketamine Infusion Therapy?
Ketamine infusion therapy involves administering a controlled dose of ketamine in a safe, monitored environment. This method allows for rapid absorption and direct impact on the brain, offering relief for conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and bi-polar.
Unlike oral medications, ketamine treatment provides a more immediate and targeted effect.
Key Benefits of Ketamine Infusion
Rapid Relief from Depression and Anxiety
Emotional
Helps Alleviate Suicidal Ideation
OCD & Bipolar Relief
Promotes Neuroplasticity
How Ketamine Works
Ketamine works by modulating NMDA receptors in the brain, which are involved in mood regulation and pain perception. This triggers the release of glutamate, a neurotransmitter that promotes the formation of new neural connections—a process called neuroplasticity. Ketamine also boosts levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), often called “fertilizer for the brain” due to its role in neuron growth and repair.
Additionally, it reduces brain inflammation, a known factor in mood disorders. These combined effects help restore brain function and drive ketamine’s rapid therapeutic benefits.
