Welcome home - We’re happy you’re here at Elite Ketamine
✨What you can expect on your Ketamine journey with us
✨Step 1: We Start with Your Story
From the moment you arrive, everything is designed with your healing in mind.
Your journey begins with a thoughtful consultation. We take the time to truly understand what you're carrying - your concerns, your pain, and what you’re hoping to heal.
Together, we create a treatment plan tailored to your needs
🌿 Step 2: The Healing Space
On the day of your first session, you’ll step into a calming, zen-inspired room bathed in soft hues of blue and green - colors carefully chosen to soothe your nervous system. A custom blend of music begins to play, curated to follow the rhythm of your experience - shifting in tone, tempo, and energy as your journey unfolds.
You’ll remove your shoes and settle into a zero-gravity chair. A weighted blanket is gently placed over you. Your body begins to relax. Your mind starts to let go. Eye mask on. Lights dimmed.
🧘 Step 3: Settling into the Experience
Once you’re comfortable, Ketamine is administered slowly through an IV. Our team ensures you feel safe, grounded, and supported - and then gives you the space to explore your journey without interruption. You are gently checked on throughout your session, always with care and silence, so your experience remains entirely your own.
This is more than treatment - it’s a return to yourself.

Research shows that Ketamine promotes rapid neuroplasticity - meaning your brain becomes more flexible, more open to change, and better equipped to heal. Unlike traditional antidepressants that can take weeks to build up, Ketamine begins working within hours - helping to create new pathways in the brain that support long-term healing.

A special Ketamine reminder from our hearts, to yours
Healing doesn’t always follow a straight line - and that’s okay.
At Elite Ketamine Therapy, we believe in transparency, encouragement, and supporting you through every part of this journey. Here are a few helpful things to keep in mind as you begin:
🧠 It’s a tool - not a cure
Ketamine won’t “fix” everything overnight. It won’t erase chronic pain, depression, or trauma entirely. Instead, think of it as a tool - one that opens space for healing, quiets the noise, and helps your mind and body reset. Ketamine works by targeting the brain’s NMDA receptors - regulating glutamate, a key neurotransmitter involved in mood and pain perception. This shift supports neuropathically, helping the brain reconnect with healthier patters of thought and emotion and works best when used consistently and alongside other supportive care.
🌱 It builds over time
While some people feel a shift after one infusion, most people experience gradual improvement. Ketamine needs time to work in your system - helping your brain and body form new pathways for resilience. Don’t worry if you don’t feel instant results. Stay on the healing path. Trust the process.
💬 Your dose is personal
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach here. We work closely with you to find the dose that’s right for your diagnosis, body, and experience. Some people may need adjustments over time - and that’s totally normal.
🔄 Post-infusion flares are real
You may feel emotional, tired, or even unsettled after a session. This doesn’t mean it’s not working - it means your body and mind are processing. These temporary “flares” are a sign that your nervous system is shifting. Be gentle with yourself.
💪 Look for the small wins
For some, progress shows up in subtle ways - like tying your shoes without pain or waking up with less dread. You won’t always notice a big change, but when you look back, you’ll see how far you’ve come.
🗒 Journaling can help
Try jotting down how you feel each day. A sentence or two is enough. Tracking your emotions, energy, or pain helps you notice patterns and progress - especially on hard days when it’s easy to forget how much you’ve already healed.
