“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.”
-Jiddu Krishnamurti
Our Approach
At Alleviation Ketamine, we provide safe and effective care for many mental health conditions and chronic pain syndromes with intravenous ketamine infusion therapy. We know you are more than a diagnosis. Although, diagnoses can be helpful in guiding treatment and research, they do not tell the full story of your life or make up all of who you are. Patterns of thought, emotion, feeling and behavior have developed as a result of years of experiences - and only experience will lead to true healing. Thus, we view treatment with ketamine as a personal journey and we act as your guides. The power to heal is an innate quality of our bodies and minds and we help you unlock that potential. Our approach focuses on the healing effect of the non-ordinary state of consciousness that occurs during the infusion. This state shift allows access to unconscious parts of the mind that are difficult to access in ordinary waking consciousness. There is an innate wisdom of the body and mind, that knows how to heal and find safety, and using this non-ordinary state of consciousness is the lens through which was can witness that wisdom. We also focus on neuroception, the ability of the autonomic nervous system and subcortical brain regions to interpret internal and external stimuli to assess the level of safety. We provide a safe and nurturing environment so you can fully immerse yourself in the process. Finally, we emphasize the effect of enhanced neuroplasticity catalyzed by the ketamine infusion. Neuroplasticity is the ability of neurons (nerve cells) to form new connections in the brain and nervous system and break old connections. This is the process of psychological and emotional change that occurs at the cellular and molecular level.
What We Treat
At Alleviation Ketamine, we look at each diagnosis as a surface manifestations of deeper pain and suffering. We view each diagnosis as a confluence of various strategies and adaptations to life experiences, difficulties, wounds and traumas. The mind and nervous system are shaped by our environment and prioritize survival. However these strategies and adaptations are context-specific and as inevitable change occurs, those strategies can lose their relevance. Ketamine infusion therapy can get to the root underlying and driving symptoms and can help you find deep, transformational healing.
