Major Depressive Disorder is a serious mental health condition that can have a significant impact on an individual’s quality of life.
Symptoms of Major Depressive Disorder, also known as clinical depression, include feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and worthlessness, loss of interest in activities that were once enjoyed, changes in appetite and sleep patterns, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and recurring thoughts of death or suicide.
At Brain Spa, we offer a unique approach to treating Major Depressive Disorder through Ketamine Assisted Hypnotherapy. Ketamine has shown to have fast-acting and sustained antidepressant effects, and when combined with psychotherapy techniques, can help patients permanently break negative thought patterns and replace them with healthier ones.
What is Ketamine and Why Is It Effective for Depression?
Ketamine was originally used as an anesthetic but has emerged as a highly effective treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD) and other mental health conditions. Unlike traditional antidepressants that can take weeks to show effects, ketamine works rapidly by altering brain chemistry in a way that promotes new neural connections. In essence, it helps “reset” your brain’s response to depression, offering fast relief from persistent symptoms.
The Benefits of Ketamine for Depression
What to Expect During Your Ketamine Treatment
Before your first session, you’ll have an in-depth consultation with your healthcare provider to ensure that ketamine is the right fit for your needs. During the treatment, ketamine is administered intravenously under medical supervision, ensuring both safety and effectiveness. Many patients report feeling lighter and more hopeful after just one session, with effects lasting for several weeks.
Who Can Benefit from Ketamine Therapy?
Ketamine is particularly beneficial for those suffering from treatment-resistant depression. If you’ve tried other antidepressants or therapies without success, ketamine may offer the rapid relief you’ve been searching for. It is also being explored for its potential benefits in treating PTSD, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.
