Please consult with our Care Team to determine the suitability of ketamine therapy for your specific medical history and conditions.

Ketamine therapy has shown significant effectiveness in treating various mental health conditions and chronic pain. Many individuals experience rapid and enduring relief from symptoms. However, the effectiveness may vary from person to person. Our team at Cultured Therapeutics is committed to working closely with each patient to optimize their treatment plan and achieve the best possible outcomes.
Like any medical treatment, ketamine therapy may have potential side effects. These can include mild dissociation, changes in perception, or nausea. However, these effects are typically short-lived and resolve soon after the infusion. Our team closely monitors and addresses any concerns during and after your sessions.
The timing of results can vary among individuals. While some may experience relief after the first session, others may require several sessions before noticing significant improvements. Our team will work closely with you to monitor progress and adjust the treatment plan accordingly.
Your initial ketamine infusion marks the beginning of your therapeutic journey. Ketamine experiences are unique to each person, but common occurrences include:
It's important to note that experiences vary, and you may also encounter nothing at all during the infusion while still benefiting from ketamine's antidepressant effects. Our Care Team will guide you through the process, ensuring your comfort and safety. We'll also discuss your goals and intentions for treatment, creating a holistic and personalized experience to enhance the therapeutic benefits of ketamine.
Preparation may include avoiding food and liquids for a few hours before the session, wearing comfortable clothing, and arranging transportation for your first few sessions. Specific guidelines will be provided during your initial consultation.
Ketamine infusion sessions typically last about 60 to 90 minutes, allowing sufficient time for the medication to take effect and for our team to monitor your well-being during the process.
The post-session experience can vary among individuals. Some common feelings and sensations include:
It's important to note that these feelings can be subjective and may vary. Some individuals may experience a range of emotions, while others may not notice immediate effects. Our Care Team is available to discuss and address any post-session experiences or concerns you may have.
Due to the temporary effects of ketamine, it's advisable to arrange transportation for your initial sessions.
After a ketamine therapy session, it's essential to take some time for reflection and self-care. Our Care Team will provide guidance on any specific post-session recommendations tailored to your individual needs.
Our Mental Health Healing Program involves a series of six one-hour intravenous ketamine infusions administered over 3-4 weeks. This "loading dose" is tailored to each patient's tolerance. Following the initial series, we recommend maintenance infusions every 6 to 8 weeks. Patients may also complement the program with low-dose oral ketamine two to three times weekly. Our holistic approach includes collaborative goal-setting and the use of sensory, somatic, and mindfulness techniques to enhance the therapeutic process.
Before the first infusion, patients collaborate with our team to establish personal goals and clarify their intentions for treatment. This focused intention-setting helps anchor and empower the therapeutic experience, creating an optimal setting for healing.
Our Chronic Pain Healing Program includes three four-hour intravenous ketamine infusions administered within 7-10 days. We tailor the treatment plan based on individual responses, with many patients reporting noticeable relief for up to three to four months. Maintenance infusions can be repeated as necessary to manage pain. Our team works closely with patients to maximize relief while minimizing discomfort.
The frequency of maintenance sessions varies depending on individual needs. After the initial series, maintenance infusions may be recommended every 6 to 8 weeks or as determined by your personalized treatment plan. Our team will collaborate with you to establish the most effective schedule.

While we do not directly accept health insurance plans, we provide a detailed Superbill receipt after your treatment. You can submit this receipt to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement. This choice allows us to prioritize your health goals over insurance requirements and maintain a direct doctor-patient relationship.
We consciously make the choice not to directly accept health insurance to maintain direct doctor-patient relationships. This enables us to focus on your individual health needs without being bound by insurance constraints.
