Treatments Offered at Actify Neurotherapies
IV Infusion
IV ketamine infusion delivers a carefully measured dose of ketamine directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous line. A typical mental-health session lasts 40–60 minutes; chronic-pain protocols often run longer, up to two hours. Patients recline in a monitored clinical environment with vital signs tracked throughout. Most treatment courses involve a series of six infusions over two to three weeks, followed by periodic maintenance sessions depending on individual response.
Nasal/Spravato
Spravato (esketamine nasal spray) is the first FDA-approved ketamine-derived treatment for adults with treatment-resistant depression. Because of the risk of sedation and dissociation, the medication must be self-administered under direct healthcare provider supervision at a REMS-certified clinic. Patients remain on-site for at least two hours after each dose. Sessions typically occur twice a week during the induction phase, reducing in frequency as treatment progresses.

What to Expect on Your First Visit
Most clinics ask new patients to complete a health questionnaire and a brief phone or video intake before scheduling the first in-person session. You'll be asked about your psychiatric and medical history, current medications, and prior treatment history. Certain medications — especially stimulants, lamotrigine, and some benzodiazepines — may need to be adjusted beforehand, so allow time for that conversation.
On your first treatment day, plan to stay two to three hours and arrange a ride home: you cannot drive after a ketamine infusion. The clinical team will explain the procedure, establish IV access, and adjust the room lighting and music to support a calm environment. During the infusion you may notice dissociation, altered perception, or a dreamlike state — these are expected and temporary.
