Is Ketamine Treatment Right for Me?


If you are currently receiving behavioral and mental health treatment and feel you aren’t getting the results you need or you have found in the past you are resistant to this form of treatment, you may be looking for other solutions. This may include ketamine treatment.


Below is more information about what ketamine treatment is, the Front Door Health approach to ketamine treatment, and whether or not ketamine treatment may be the right option to meet your needs.


What is Ketamine Treatment?


Ketamine treatment is a form of treatment that utilizes a medication known as ketamine to help patients that have treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, anxiety, and other behavioral and mental health conditions. Ketamine helps the brain of the patient to form new connections and improves their ability to regulate difficult emotions.


The K3 treatment program at Front Door Health involves the patient receiving ketamine treatment from the comfort of their own home. K3 involves the integration of psychiatry and psychotherapy, which helps to enhance the effectiveness of the treatment.


Dr. Adelstein of Front Door Health is quoted as saying:

 

“Ketamine is hands down the most exciting novel therapeutic in the field of psychiatry in years. It is a game changer in the treatment of depression and substance use disorders and holds tremendous promise for future pharmacologic and even psychotherapeutic interventions. Several folks whom I’ve referred for ketamine have told me it was life-changing.”


At-home K3 therapy is safe, convenient, and effective.


Is Ketamine Treatment Right for Me?


Ketamine treatment can be helpful for many patients, but it isn’t always the best option. Patients that take certain medications should not undergo ketamine treatment. Pregnant women, patients with schizophrenia, and others that are deemed to not be good candidates for ketamine treatment should avoid this form of treatment and will not be approved.


If it is determined that ketamine treatment is not right for you, don’t worry! There are plenty of other treatment options that can help provide you with the support you need to treat your behavioral health condition.


A Well-Rounded Treatment Plan

 

Ketamine is considered an addition to a well-rounded treatment program and not a replacement. If you are suffering from a behavioral disorder, it’s important to seek treatment that meets all of your needs and addresses the underlying issues that lead to the disorder. That’s where Front Door Health comes in.

We take a scientific approach to treatment, and we create custom treatment plans for our patients to increase their chances of success.
