Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health disorder in the United States, affecting 40 million adults. If you suffer from an anxiety disorder, you may experience symptoms such as racing thoughts, chest pain, shortness of breath, and panic attacks. Ketamine infusion therapy can help to reduce your anxiety symptoms so that you can live a more productive and enjoyable life. Many studies have demonstrated benefit with ketamine in the treatment of anxiety disorders. While many anti-anxiety medications come with a host of side effects, ketamine has very few side effects and is considered to be safe and well-tolerated.

Depression is a serious mental health condition that can cause a variety of physical and emotional symptoms. If you suffer from depression, you may feel hopeless, fatigue, and irritable.

Given that most anti-depressants take weeks or even months to take effect, ketamine offers a much faster option.
