Ketamine directly targets your brain, where it primarily works as an NMDA receptor antagonist meaning it temporarily blocks glutamate receptors. Glutamate transmits pain signals and regulates psychological conditions like depression and anxiety.

When these and other receptors are temporarily blocked, a cascade of chemical reactions occurs that relieves pain and improves mental health conditions. Ketamine changes the way your central nervous system processes signals from pain or trauma and can lead to a “mental reset”.

While the research indicates rapid improvement in mental health conditions, it is unknown the full extent of how many neurotransmitters are affected by ketamine. An initial boost in glutamate levels may be why ketamine produces quick results, and for most of our clients, depression symptoms improve within a few hours or during their first few ketamine treatments. By comparison, antidepressants take weeks to months to work, if they work at all.

Long-lasting results are possible with the holistic approach we take and the specialized ketamine infusions we provide. Ketamine infusions give an experience unlike any other form of therapy, psychedelic medicine, or ketamine route of administration. This unique experience allows you to disrupt negative patterns, let go of trauma, and see your world from a new point of view. Ketamine regrows neural pathways in your brain so you can navigate the world with hope, and more clearly than you ever thought possible.
