Mesa Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy For Addiction Recovery: Treatment Announced

Feb 7, 2024

Inner Alchemy Integrated Health (480) 382-2565) has announced its ketamine-assisted psychotherapy services for Mesa residents recovering from substance abuse and addiction.

With this announcement, the clinic hopes to encourage Mesa residents struggling with symptoms related to addiction recovery to consider its ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, which is administered by a credentialed Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. Inner Alchemy Integrated Health issues its ketamine-assisted therapy in a warm, home-like environment that includes cozy blankets, calming music, essential oil diffusion, elective ceremonial practices, and supportive conversation with an experienced guide.

During the practice's recently announced ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, patients can choose to receive their ketamine doses intramuscularly, intravenously, orally, or nasally. Inner Alchemy's team believes intramuscular administration of the substance allows the nervous system to more fully relax, as patients are not inhibited by being connected to an IV drip, making their experience as comfortable as possible.

As explained in a review of multiple clinical studies published by the National Library of Medicine, ketamine has been shown to prolong abstinence from heroin and alcohol in detoxified addicts and reduce craving for cocaine. It is believed that ketamine, a dissociative anesthetic drug, may enhance neuroplasticity and block the reconsolidation of drug-related memories, helping to reduce physical and psychological cravings.

Many of Inner Alchemy's patients who've found relief from ketamine-assisted psychotherapy had previously tried conventional addiction treatments without success. The practice provides patients with comprehensive support throughout their ketamine-assisted treatment process, with detailed monitoring of their physical health and consistent access to a specialized team member for emotional and mental guidance.
