KETAMINE TREATMENT
WHAT IS KETAMINE?
Ketamine is a dissociative medication that can help a person disconnect from their ordinary reality and usual self. It is an off-label prescription for chronic treatment-resistant mental conditions including treatment-resistant depression / major depression, anxiety, PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), and certain addictions / SUDs (substance use disorders).
Ketamine treatment may provide a reduction in your mind’s typical activities while maintaining a conscious awareness of your thoughts. It allows your brain to be open to reframing perspective and tends to lead to a disruption of negative feelings and obsessional preoccupations.
WHAT DOES
KETAMINE DO?
Ketamine helps slow down your brain activity and nervous system. It affects the neurotransmitter glutamate. When Ketamine is administered into the body, it blocks the NMDA receptors, located on a nerve cell, which disinhibits the release of glutamate. The release of this neurotransmitter activates a process that stimulates cells to generate additional synapses, as well as to regenerate ones that have become less functional.
This mechanism can lead to relief for depression, pain, and create new psychological pathways for healing.
A typical antidepressant medication affects one of the three basic neurotransmitters in the brain, such as dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin.
In order to see a fundamental physiological and thus also behavioral change, one needs to participate in multiple sessions. It is recommended to have six sessions over the course of three weeks. Repeated infusions, which occur in a short time span, have shown to elongate the results by three to six months.
