The goal of the team at Initia Nova is to allow patients to regain those things that have been taken away by years of managing difficult and painful syndromes. Physicians have been using ketamine as an anesthetic for more than half a century, and this reliable medication is now also seen as a breakthrough psychiatric treatment.

With an impressive “team of experienced ER nurses and licensed, experienced therapists,” the clinic is ready to provide a safe, comfortable, and private location in which to address the struggles and pain of these resistant and chronic conditions.

Your Treatment: What to Expect
Many people approach ketamine treatments with some trepidation, and this can have a negative effect on the procedure. It is recommended that patients allow that they will feel a bit “weird” during the procedure, but will leave feeling much better.
Patients are constantly monitored during the procedure by either a nurse or doctor. During KAP, a therapist will also sit in on the session. The total visit lasts about two hours.
Who is this treatment for?
