Ketamine-Assisted Therapy for Pain Management
At Unika Medical Centre, we offer ketamine-assisted therapy as part of a comprehensive pain management program. Treatment suitability is determined through a detailed clinical assessment by our medical team.
Ketamine, traditionally known as an anesthetic, has emerged as a groundbreaking treatment for various mental health conditions. At Unika Medical Centre, we harness the rapid-acting antidepressant effects of ketamine to provide relief for patients suffering from depression, OCD, and addiction. Unlike conventional antidepressants, which can take weeks to show benefits, ketamine can alleviate depressive symptoms within hours to days. This rapid onset is particularly beneficial for individuals with treatment-resistant depression or those seeking to overcome addiction.
