While Ketamine has been used as an anesthetic for over 50 years, recent research illuminates exciting new uses for Ketamine. Ketamine often produces quicker and more effective results than standard mental health treatments like antidepressants. Ketamine treatment can begin working immediately and some patients report positive effects within minutes of their first treatment (responses vary depending on the individual patient). Ketamine has been shown to restore brain function by triggering the brain to grow new synaptic connections in a process called synaptogenesis. These new connections can help address mental disorders and other serious conditions that significantly impact your quality of life.
