Patients come to us hoping ketamine will help them get rid of...you name it. Depression. Pain. Anxiety. But here is the thing. To be honest, ketamine and no other drug can cure you. In this blog post, we’ll tell you what can help you.

You may be hoping that ketamine is the ultimate answer to all your problems. But that rarely is the case...

Ketamine Isn’t the Magic Answer

Feelings of depression, pain, and anxiety are part of life. There is no doubt that the levels at which our patients are experiencing these things are higher than “normal”. Ketamine is a tool and way to help get them back to a different level.

Ketamine along with integration of the ketamine infusion experience afterwards doesn’t fully eliminate depression, pain, and anxiety. Instead, it can increase the individual's capacity to experience it. Ketamine can help change the perspective of what is going around you.

We have seen our patients have radical improvement in their pain, or no longer feel a depression which holds them back. They are also able to be less anxious. If you think about it, their situations didn’t change. The things in their life which caused them pain, sadness, and anxiety didn’t change. THEY changed, and they made changes to the way they interact with their environment.

For those of you who have gotten infusion after infusion, and feel like you may be getting less of an effect despite increased amounts per infusion — the question you need to ask yourself is, “WHAT AM I DOING OUTSIDE OF THE INFUSIONS?”

Don’t get us wrong, there are powerful biochemical, psychological, and (we believe) spiritual mechanisms at work during the infusion. However, the real life transforming magic that is sustainable and stops people in their tracks doesn’t happen during the infusion itself. It happens from what you do in your everyday life based on what you have experienced during the infusion.

The same triggers of your pain exist, but the way you perceive them, interact with them, and label them will drastically change.

The same things which bring you down or the trauma you had experienced as a kid won’t change. But the story you create around them is one of empowerment.

Ketamine isn’t going to heal you of your emotional and physical pain. Only YOU can do that.

The Answer Lies Within You

We would love to simply infuse you, and heal you of your emotional and physical pain forever and ever. But besides that being impossible, the real power and healing transformation can only come through YOU.

You were naturally creative, resourceful, and whole when you found ketamine infusions and started to change your life. Putting all your hope into ketamine to help you negates the power within you.

So it’s up to you to grow, heal, and take ownership of healing yourself. Ketamine is a tool, but you are the hand that wields it.
