Intranasal Ketamine Therapy- Flexible, and personalized

We’ll review safety, goals, and whether this is a good fit

The difference between Spravato and Intranasal Ketamine

Intranasal Ketamine therapy is a unique offering that Blossom Ketamine offers. Ketamine therapy has been transforming lives. But as you know not everyone has access to insurance or expensive medications like Spravato. Spravato is an intranasal form of Ketamine. Spravato is scientifically designed to split the Ketamine molecule and only use a part of it. We believe that the molecule of Ketamine does not need to be split to have an effect. It can have a positive effect on depression and trauma work. 

 

Can it be combined with Psychotherapy?

We can combined intranasal Ketamine with psychotherapy to obtain the effect of the dual mechanism. One mechanism is the biological effect of Ketamine on our brain. This can include neurogenesis. Which is the formation of new pathways in your mind. The second mechanism is the psychological improvement. Which deals with “What pathways are formed in your mind”. Think about a growing plant. The watering is the Ketamine and the direction it grows is the psychotherapy. 

Can it be used without psychotherapy?

Intranasal Ketamine therapy can also be used without psychotherapy to obtain only the biological effect of the Ketamine molecule. This can be useful when someone is not wanting to engage in psychotherapy. That can be because of lack of efficacy of therapy in the past. It can also be financial resources. Similarly it can also be an unwillingness of a person to engage in introspection. Our experience, however, suggests that combination of interventions with psychotherapy have the chance to be superior than intervention alone. 

Why Choose Intranasal Ketamine?

  • Flexible Dosing: Dosing with Spravato can be limited because of pre-made medicine doses that the insurance authorizes. With Intranasal Ketamine therapy the dosing is customized to symptoms. 

  • Convenient Dosing: With the correct dosing, dissociative experiences are limited for people in whom disassociation is not tolerable. 

  • Personalized Treatment: The typical financial investment of intranasal ketamine therapy is much lower than Spravato or intramuscular Ketamine.  

  • Scalable Care: Start with low doses appropriate to your need and psychotherapy.

  • Deeper Integration: Integrate insights with your therapist over time, building resilience and emotional depth.
