Ketamine therapy

Ketamine therapy involves the use of ketamine, a medication traditionally used as anesthesia, to treat mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, and PTSD. When administered in controlled, clinical settings—often through intravenous infusion or nasal spray—it can quickly alter brain activity, helping to restore mood and reduce symptoms. This therapy is typically considered after other treatments have failed. It works by influencing neural pathways related to mood regulation, promoting new connections, and producing rapid improvement. Ketamine therapy is generally safe when supervised by healthcare professionals, but it requires careful monitoring due to potential side effects.
