Harrisburg’s Premiere Ketamine Therapy Clinic for anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, and chronic pain relief.
Depression, anxiety, and PTSD has been on the rise in recent years. According to a study in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, nearly one in 10 adults and one in five adolescents reported having depression in 2020, up from 6.6% of Americans in 2005. As depression becomes more common, finding effective treatment options has become more important.
When fluoxetine (Prozac) was introduced in the 1980s, it was the first selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant medication to be approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). At the time, it was considered a groundbreaking treatment for depression. One of the drawbacks: It can take several weeks to months to work effectively. That’s where ketamine therapy comes in.

How Youveau approaches ketamine treatment
Patients with mental health or chronic pain, may benefit from one of the treatment-resistant clinical options, such as ketamine, if:
- They have not responded well previously to conventional antidepressant medications or psychotherapy.
- They have no other medical conditions, such as seizures, substance abuse, or liver, or history of stroke, or kidney problems.
- They are not currently taking any medications that could interact with ketamine
What is Ketamine Therapy?
Ketamine treatment is most commonly delivered in one of two ways. In intravenous (IV) infusion, ketamine is delivered directly into the bloodstream through a small needle placed in a vein in your arm. For mental health, the infusions typically take around 40 minutes to an hour and consist of a series of six treatments. For chronic pain, infusions last about four hours and may consist of a single treatment. You will be monitored during the entire procedure.
Side effects: Ketamine can have side effects, such as dissociation or temporary increases in blood pressure during or shortly after the infusion, nausea and vomiting, and dizziness.

Benefits?/How effective is Ketamine Therapy?
Although ketamine treatments have a very high success rate, there are no guarantees that ketamine therapy will work for you or your loved one. Following that protocol, in ideal cases and research settings, you could realistically expect that after six ketamine infusion sessions over two weeks, 70%-75% of patients undergoing ketamine therapy will experience at least a 50% reduction in symptoms.
