Ketamine infusion session is a 40 minutes IV treatment on a comfortable recliner chaise wearing comfortable clothing and eye cover, listening to your relaxing music of choice with low surrounding distractions or stimulants (low light, low noise, good temperature) in a medically supervised and safe environment. Patients have described session as a “MYSTIC JOURNEY” to clear one’s mind from stresses that are experienced in one’s daily life. Many patients report treatment took them in state of “DREAM” to reconnect with their souls and selves. They come back with much clearer thoughts and stronger spirits and intensions for a new beginning to change their longstanding negative experiences, believes and difficulties into more positive ones.
