KETAMINE INFUSION

Depression affects 18 million people in the US. If you are one of them, we can help you! Ketamine works faster than antidepressants and it can quickly reduce the life-threatening thoughts and acts that can lead to suicide. It can also relieve other serious symptoms of depression at the same time. Ketamine is also effective for treating anxiety combined with depression. 

WHAT IS KETAMINE?

Ketamine is an anaesthetic that works by blocking the NMDA receptors that affect mood and pain response, changing the way the brain cells communicate. If we compare the brain with a computer, Ketamine works fixing the hardware while traditional treatments work fixing the software.
