What is Ketamine Infusion Therapy

Ketamine infusion therapy is a medical treatment that involves the infusion of ketamine, a medication that is commonly known as an anesthetic, into the bloodstream. This treatment is used to alleviate symptoms of depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other mental health conditions. Ketamine works by blocking the NMDA receptor, a type of receptor in the brain that is associated with mood regulation. By blocking the NMDA receptor, ketamine can help to reduce depressive symptoms and improve mood. It also has other effects on the brain, such as increasing the release of dopamine and norepinephrine, which can help to reduce anxiety.

Ketamine infusion therapy is typically administered in a hospital or clinic setting and typically requires multiple treatments over the course of several weeks or months. It is important to keep in mind that while ketamine infusion therapy can be effective in reducing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and PTSD, it is not a cure and should always be used in conjunction with other forms of treatment, such as psychotherapy. Additionally, ketamine infusion therapy can have some side effects, such as dizziness and nausea, and should be monitored closely by a doctor or mental health professional.


What does ketamine infusion therapy treat

Ketamine infusion therapy is a form of medication-assisted treatment that is used to treat depression, other mental health disorders, and chronic pain. This is done by administering small doses of ketamine directly into the patient's bloodstream. Ketamine is a powerful anesthetic that has been found to have strong antidepressant effects. Ketamine infusion therapy works by targeting the brain and body's natural pathways for healing, allowing the patient to experience an increased level of relief from chronic pain and mental health symptoms.

By targeting these pathways, ketamine helps to reduce inflammation, allowing the patient to feel more relaxed and at ease. This can also reduce levels of anxiety and depression, resulting in an overall improvement in quality of life. Additionally, ketamine has been found to improve cognitive functioning and reduce suicidal thoughts. Overall, ketamine infusion therapy is a safe and effective way to treat mental health disorders and chronic pain. It has been found to provide long-term relief from symptoms while also improving overall quality of life. Patients should speak with their doctor to determine if ketamine infusion therapy is right for them.

Our Services

Medication Management

Medication management is an essential tool Nurmi Health providers are using to help you find relief from mood disorders, such as depression, and other mental health issues, such as ADHD. 

Esketamine

Esketamine is a medication that comes from the psychedelic drug ketamine. It's been approved by the FDA to help with depression, and it's believed to help your brain make new connections.

Psychotherapy

Seeking mental health treatment does not mean that you are “unwell” or “flawed” as some people might think. Many people who get help from a therapist are dealing with normal, everyday problems. Therapy can help you if you want to feel better.

Ketamine Infusion

Research has shown that ketamine infusion therapy can help improve symptoms of depression in as many as 70% of patients with treatment-resistant depression and can even lead to a total remission of symptoms in 30-40% of patients.

What People Say

Sarah Conrad

I cannot thank the Nurmi Health enough for their help! The psychiatrist is caring and really took the time to listen to me. He explained everything, from the meds to the therapy, in basic terms. The online appointments were super easy to use too. With their help, I was able to manage my anxiety and depression without being loaded up on meds. They gave me tools to use in my everyday life, which I really appreciate. Finally, I found a place that understands me and is accessible. So much gratitude!

Brian Gotter

I wanted to take a moment to share my exceptional experience with the phenomenal team. The providers took the effort to fully explain any prescribed treatments. I have found comfort in addressing the root causes rather than solely relying on medication. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone

Alicia Johnson

I am so grateful for. After struggling with panic attacks for years without much success from previous psychiatrists. The psychiatrist's approachable demeanor made it easy for me to open up about what was going on mentally during those moments when everything felt overwhelming; together we developed strategies tailored specifically towards managing anxiety triggers effectively through therapy sessions and medication management
