The clinic offers IV ketamine infusions, which it calls Mental Wellness Sessions, for treatment-resistant, refractory, severe, bipolar and postpartum depression, PTSD, anxiety, ADHD/OCD and suicidal thoughts.

The clinic recommends an initiation series of 4 to 6 infusions, one to three per week over two to four weeks, with follow-up after each infusion and then monthly. A certified registered nurse places the IV, heart rate and rhythm, blood pressure and oxygen saturation are monitored throughout, and a staff member stays with you for the whole session. You can’t drive until the following morning, so someone must take you home. The clinic doesn’t typically treat children younger than 12; it treats teens and adults.

Chronic pain pricing depends on the length of the infusion.
