Get Back To Doing The Things You Love With The Ones You Love
We are in the midst of a substance abuse crisis worldwide. A clear and alarming example is the current opioid addiction and overdose epidemic, representing a serious global health problem as well as a significant social and economic burden.
Ketamine serves to lessen the physical and emotional burdens on the patient, as they seek to empower themselves to walk a healthier path.
With Ketamine Infusion Therapy, our clients can limit or eliminate the physical craving, and withdrawal symptoms, for alcohol or illicit substances, IMMEDIATELY.
In addition to assisting in alcohol and substance abuse recovery, ketamine can effectively treat symptoms of the underlying mood-disorders that can promote negative substance patterns. The Ketamine experience not only provides direct relief from withdrawal symptoms but also serves as a form of self-therapy. In a soothing manner, patients are able to self-examine and form healthier thought patterns.
At NeuroRelief™, every treatment plan for substance and alcohol abuse recovery includes multiple, integrated components. To assist our unique clients in achieving their personal growth and treatment goals Dr. Harris, and our clinical team, incorporate several, synergistic approaches to address different facets of each person’s needs.
Each treatment day consists of one-on-one emotional integration sessions, before and after each ketamine infusion.
Every NeuroRelief™ ketamine infusion program includes five(5) 1-hour, one-on-one integration therapy sessions with your personal Certified Integration and Recovery Coach between treatment days.
We incorporate cognitive behavior (CBT) learning and mindfulness training into every day of a client’s journey, to help them learn how to maintain the gains they achieve, for the long-term.
Our Medical Director, Dr. Harris, is amazingly accessible, 24/7, via text, email, and phone, to be contacted directly by each and every one of our clients. This unprecedented level of access to clinical and emotional support empowers our clients to maximize their successes and learn how to maintain them!
This well-rounded and unique support system simultaneously treats the underlying mood disorder, and related withdrawal depression/anxiety, that underpins many clients’ difficulties in achieving sobriety in the past.
This integrative approach to detoxification is extremely unique, and effective! We also work directly with sobriety coaches, addictionologists (especially for benzodiazepine detox), and other recovery support programs to optimize our clients’ results.
This detailed tailoring of treatment, coaching, and support allows clients to surpass even their own dreams of success and relief!
By converting receptor-sensitivities back to a more naive set-up (ie. before dependency was created) the detox-associated withdrawal symptoms can be largely eliminated!
In addition, the reward centers of our brain can be re-sensitized to dramatically increase the sense of joy, satisfaction, and fulfillment that we can experience from the beautiful stimuli that have always existed all around us, but previously didn’t feel like enough.
In other words, we can recover the bang-for-our-buck from our sober lives, which encourages us to remain sober, and not feel a necessity to fall back into substance abuse to find a sense of daily reward or comfort.
Imaging and electron microscopy describes the suffering human brain as containing neurons that appear like leafless trees. After ketamine infusion therapy, these brain cells “bloom” to life, demonstrating regeneration of neural pathways and synapses.
For optimal success and ease of recovery from alcohol or any substance of abuse, NeuroRelief™ recommends pairing our ketamine infusion program with our NAD+ infusion support.
NAD+ infusions have been proven to significantly remove cravings, mental fog, and any decrease in mood or energy levels that may accompany a course of detoxification (we recommend the 1000mg dosing, per infusion).
NAD+ replacement renews our nerve and muscle cells. NAD+ is a necessary cofactor to improve each cell’s energy and nutrient production. Drug and alcohol abuse, including prescription medications, can imbalance these vital cells’ ability to function optimally by worsening “oxidative stress.” This increased oxidative damage from substance abuse depletes NAD+ from the cells, and contributes to the experience of low mood, withdrawals, cravings, mind-fog, muscle aches, chronic fatigue, and other symptoms of nerve/brain and muscle cell dysfunction. By replacing this lost NAD+, symptoms of withdrawal, both acute and post-acute, are significantly improved. Detoxing and recovery from drugs/alcohol is a challenging endeavor for anyone. We want our clients to have the easiest time possible, in making this courageous decision, and maintaining their physical and emotional balance during the following transition period. The scientific evidence is astounding, and even insurance companies see the value of NAD+ infusion therapy being utilized during recovery from substance abuse.
**** NeuroRelief™ strongly recommends combining NAD+ infusion therapy with one of our ketamine protocols for substance abuse. The effects are synergistic, and thus highly more effective together, than either modality is on its own.
NO. Ketamine, and most other psychedelic medications, do not demonstrate any physiologic dependency. When utilized via pharmaceutical infusion, and restricted to the clinical environment, we do not see occurrences of ketamine addiction. Nevertheless, NeuroRelief™ does not recommend or condone recreational use, especially of “street ketamine”. The impurities present in illegal ketamine can be dangerous.
It is important to us at NeuroRelief™ to serve the public. In coordination with other health care professionals, especially in the context of the ongoing opioid epidemic, we seek to provide vital assistance, and alternatives, to patients suffering from these unfortunate and dangerous addictions. Ketamine has been shown to reverse symptoms such as opiate craving, tolerance, and withdrawal symptoms.
Those with a history of substance abuse have physiologic differences, versus individuals without such histories. After Ketamine therapy, many patients see these changes, such as cravings and physical dependence, reverted back to a state of being before their nervous systems were exposed to various substances of abuse.
At NeuroRelief™, we use evidence-based approaches to patient care. Along with counseling and well-rounding substance abuse therapy, Ketamine is serving as an excellent tool for individuals attempting to regain control over their lives. We also collaborate with other substance abuse professionals and programs (in-patient and out-patient), thereby contributing to an effective recovery team. Our participants achieve amazing results; let us help you free yourself from the negative cycle of addiction and withdrawal symptoms. In addition to assisting in the recovery and elimination of withdrawal symptoms, our clients are gaining newfound confidence and empowerment. We look forward to providing the highest level of service to our clients.

2-hour Substance Abuse Recovery Protocol:
4-hour Substance Abuse Recovery Protocol:
Ketamine treatment plans are very individualized and there are several different protocols, just for depression. Through detailed phone consultation and intake with Dr. Harris, we support each client in making the choice of protocol that is perfect for them. We can share the differences in pricing of these different protocols during our first phone consultation.
At NeuroRelief™, the initial treatment plan we recommend for new clients is to come in for 6 treatment days over a 2-3 week period of time. This is the latest medical consensus of best initial practices for best initial results, called the Stabilization Protocol.
