How Does Ketamine Therapy Work?
Ketamine therapy works differently from many traditional medications. Instead of only targeting common mood chemicals, ketamine interacts with an important neurotransmitter in the brain called glutamate.
Glutamate plays a key role in communication between brain cells. When ketamine activates this system, it can help stimulate new neural connections and promote neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to repair, adapt, and form new pathways.
This process may help “reset” patterns associated with conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and chronic pain.
Research suggests that when ketamine is administered through a series of IV infusions — typically six sessions — up to 70% of patients may experience meaningful relief.
