Ketamine: At-Home vs Healing Clinics Depression Therapy, Culver City Los Angeles

Shakti Therapy & Healing Services (424-265-9943) announced its Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy as an alternative to at-home ketamine treatments. The clinic talks about the benefits of ketamine therapy in the presence of medical staff and the risks that exist when choosing at-home options.

Shakti Therapy & Healing Services has resolved to make a solid push to be renowned for its Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy in Culver City and surrounding cities. Dedicated to becoming the top choice for patients suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, or other mental health conditions, the practice is determined to become a go-to clinic for patients suffering from mental health conditions. This practice offers effective relief from symptoms and a holistic approach to healing, particularly for those who have heard about the seemingly popular option of at-home or online ketamine treatments.

In a recent publication from the New York Times, “A Fraught New Frontier in Telehealth: Ketamine” the topic of online and at-home ketamine treatments was discussed, putting into evidence the significant risks that ketamine use, without in-person medical and professional mental health support, brings to people in search of an efficient treatment for the symptoms of mental health conditions.

Ektha Aggarwal, LCSW and founder at Shakti Therapy & Healing Services, says: “We set out to provide Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy to our patients, and we’re making this strong promotional effort because providing treatment online or at-home can limit the interaction between the patient and the therapist. This can impact the quality of treatment as important nonverbal cues may be missed, set and setting are not controlled which are essential in allowing the mind to feel safe, and the ketamine-trained therapist may not be able to accurately assess the patient's physical and emotional state.”

Shakti Therapy & Healing Services has always made a point of trying to do things in a more effective and wholesome way than other ketamine treatments online for the sake of the patient's well-being, safety, and healing. This development is just one of the many ways it manages to do that.

Ektha Aggarwal is also extremely proud of Shakti Therapy's approach, which is based on empowering its patients and cultivating lasting change by anchoring in the insights from the ketamine journey into the patient’s day-to-day life. Ektha feels this is one of the main reasons customers have gone with them over at-home ketamine treatments for as long as she has been with the Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy service.

This is an excellent chance for interested people who seek effective relief from their depression and anxiety symptoms through a holistic approach to their healing journey to try out the new Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy provided by Shakti Therapy & Healing Services, and this goes for both new and existing customers, who will always be served with total dedication.

Ektha Aggarwal also said: “Shakti Therapy & Healing Services may not be the first to have done this, but we all feel we’re doing it the best, so it’s my prediction patients will keep choosing us over at-home ketamine treatments, because providing Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy in our practice allows greater control and oversight of the treatment process by our medical professionals. In a clinical setting, our trained medical staff can monitor patients closely and ensure that the treatment is administered safely and effectively. We can also adjust the dosage and provide immediate medical attention if any adverse effects occur. In contrast, at-home treatments may lack this oversight level and could be dangerous if not done properly. Another disadvantage of at-home treatments is the technical difficulties that usually happen, like sound quality, delays in communication, or interruptions that lead to disruption in the therapeutic process.”

Ketamine binds to the NMDA receptor in the brain, which increases synaptic concentration, restores glutamatergic neurotransmission, and increases BDNF protein levels to promote new neuron growth. Recent research shows that while many standard medications can take 30 days or longer to become fully effective, ketamine treatments may be effective in as little as 24 hours. One study on patients with treatment-resistant major depression found that 71% of subjects met response and 29% met remission criteria the day following ketamine infusions (1).

Ketamine assisted psychotherapy can help patients who are unable to get relief from traditional antidepressants. Antidepressants can take weeks or even months to produce any relief, and 30% of people who take them experience only partial relief from their symptoms. Ketamine therapy is a faster, more effective treatment, with minimal side effects.
