At our Denver location we provide two injections of ketamine spaced out over 15-20 minutes. This creates a smooth experience that allow patients the ideal time to explore this space without it being too overwhelming. We start with a safe low dose and progressively increase the doses over the course of the Induction Series. Our goal is to create a powerful space in which patients can have a transformative experience. Sessions are generally 1.5 to 2 hours in the clinic.

At Klarisana we believe that the “experiential” aspect of ketamine is not a side effect but rather a critical component of how ketamine works. We have a very progressive and dynamic protocol for escalating the dose of ketamine on subsequent doses to optimize this unique mental space. This requires a significant investment of time by our staff to work with you to create a customized treatment plan to make the most of your experience.

Each one-hour infusion represents a two-hour block of time in one of our clinics. During the time the pump is running we have one of our staff members assigned to you the whole time to monitor you and guide you through what can be a powerful transformative experience in a non-ordinary state of consciousness. A number of other ketamine centers save money by putting you in a room by yourself and have a single staff member watch several patients on a video camera. Worse yet, some centers place their patients in a room together. This does save them money but is very counterproductive to a patient’s healing.

The cost of an Induction Series of ketamine IM treatments is far less than many comparable medical procedures. Some critics will focus on the actual cost of ketamine itself which is almost irrelevant to the price of the IM treatment. The more important question is not “what does ketamine cost?” but rather “what does ketamine do?” An equally important question to ask is “what goes into creating an infrastructure that can create a safe and effective therapeutic environment for patients who oftentimes have very significant symptoms?.” Success with ketamine does not simply involve sitting someone in a chair in the corner and infusing them with ketamine. Effective centers such as Klarisana have perfected the art of creating an environment to safely and effectively guide patients through a process of self-discovery and healing in a powerful psychedelic space. Klarisana is one of the oldest and most experienced ketamine providers in the country. We know what we are doing.

Klarisana has an expeditious but thorough intake process. Some centers pride themselves on getting you in a chair and infusing you the same day you call them. Ketamine therapy is NOT the same as going to a spa for a massage or mud mask. Infusing a patient the same day he or she calls is reckless and not in patients’ best interest. Ketamine is a safe but powerful medication that creates a powerful psychological response. It is critical that patients receive an appropriate intake screening as ketamine is definitely NOT appropriate for everyone.
