There are many options today for ketamine treatment - Ketamine-Assited Therapy (KAT), IV Infusions, and In-Home Ketamine. Ideally, the best practice in ketamine therapy is for every client to have a personal facilitator who helps guide and work with them in each step of the journey process - preparation, journey, and integration.
This is what we do at Perspective Wellness. Our highly personalized relational approach is the GOLD STANDARD in ketamine therapy. And we provide this gold-standard service at a very affordable price.
For example, a single IV ketamine infusion at a local Milwaukee area clinic costs over $450. We charge only $395 which includes a full preparation session, a facilitated journey at our clinic, and a reflection/integration session after your journey. You also receive a written first-person journey note and a detailed integration plan.
​
We are also a non-profit organization, and provide substantial sliding scale discounts for persons in need, veterans, and first responders.
IV Infusions vs. Ketamine-Assisted Therapy (KAT)
We use rapidly dissolving tablets (RDTs) and intramuscular (IM) injections which provide a gentle yet powerful, transformative experience. Unlike IV ketamine infusions, our process is a non-medicalized, "insight-driven" approach to ketamine treatment.
There is nothing wrong with IV treatment, but if you are interested in a more insight-driven approach then please, schedule a consultation with us to learn more.
"Before coming to Perspective, I had done IV ketamine treatments, and they worked for me. I was ready for Perspective's approach - the onset of the medicine is gentler (not white knuckle!) - and I feel safe and supported. And I got a lot from processing and integrating what comes up during my sessions." - Krysti M, client
In-Home Ketamine Services (e.g Joyous, Mindbloom)
Our mission is to enable access to safe psychedelic ketamine treatment. We often get requests to prescribe in-home ketamine. Our medical team, led by psychiatrist and addiction specialist, Erika Steinbrenner, MD, has deeply analyzed the risks/benefits of in-home ketamine. ​​
In our professional and studied opinion, the frequency and dose prescribed by online ketamine providers like Mindbloom and Joyous - daily or multiple times per week, and doses higher than 100mg - present a substantial risk of ketamine dependence and bladder cystitis, a potentially irreversible condition that negatively affects a person's ability to urinate.
The worst part about in-home providers like Joyous is that they are intentionally misrepresenting what they are selling. There is NO SUCH THING as ketamine microdosing. We've received several reports (from clients) that Joyous started them off on 25mg a day, and within a few weeks, they were being prescribed 150mg per day!
We are all about access, but it's just plain irresponsible to aggressively promote "in-home" ketamine as a wonder medicine to treat mental health conditions. Using glossy advertisements and enticing headlines to sell controlled substances is not new. Sadly, we've seen this before with other drugs, like Oxycontin, Adderall, and benzodiazepines (Xanax).

​The last thing you want is to become dependent on ketamine or experience potentially irreversible bladder cystitis.
Please, before you sign up for tele-ketamine, sign up for a free consultation with us to discuss your options.
