Ketamine therapy is revolutionizing mental health treatment in Los Angeles—and at NeuroRelief Ketamine & Infusion Therapy, we’re leading that revolution with science-backed care and a patient-first experience unlike any other clinic in the city.
What Is Ketamine and How Does It Work?
Originally developed as an anesthetic, ketamine has emerged as a powerful treatment for mood disorders, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, and chronic pain. But what makes it so effective?
Ketamine works differently than traditional antidepressants. Instead of targeting serotonin or dopamine, ketamine influences glutamate, the brain’s most abundant excitatory neurotransmitter. Glutamate plays a key role in neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to form new connections and repair damaged neural pathways.
At low, controlled doses administered via IV infusion, ketamine:
-
Rapidly increases synaptic connections in areas of the brain responsible for mood regulation.
-
Promotes neuroplasticity, helping patients “rewire” negative thought patterns.
-
Reduces activity in the Default Mode Network (DMN)—the part of the brain often associated with rumination and depressive thinking.
These effects occur within hours, unlike antidepressants that can take weeks. That’s why ketamine is considered a breakthrough therapy, particularly for treatment-resistant depression and PTSD.
Why NeuroRelief Is Different From Other LA Ketamine Clinics
Los Angeles has seen a surge of ketamine providers—but NeuroRelief Ketamine & Infusion Therapy stands out for its commitment to medical excellence, personalized care, and holistic healing.
Here’s how we’re redefining the ketamine experience:
1. Doctor-Led Care by Board-Certified Anesthesiologists
Many clinics in LA are operated by general practitioners or wellness providers. At NeuroRelief, your care is overseen by Dr. Austin Harris, a board-certified anesthesiologist with extensive experience in controlled ketamine administration and monitoring. Safety and precision are always the priority.
2. Advanced Monitoring During Every Infusion
Unlike spa-like environments or therapy offices, NeuroRelief is a fully equipped medical facility. Each infusion session includes continuous monitoring of vitals, cardiac activity, and oxygen levels, ensuring your treatment is both safe and effective.
3. Customized Protocols for Mental Health and Chronic Pain
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Our treatment protocols are tailored to each individual, whether you’re seeking relief from Major Depressive Disorder, bipolar depression, PTSD, or complex pain conditions like CRPS or fibromyalgia.
4. Integration Support for Long-Term Results
The real magic of ketamine happens after the infusion.
At NeuroRelief, every client participating in our ketamine therapy protocols receives complimentary access to a full suite of supportive services designed to maximize the benefits of treatment and promote lasting transformation. Our Certified Integration and Recovery Coaching includes five private, one-on-one Zoom sessions, each lasting one hour and conducted from the comfort and privacy of your own home. These sessions help clients—regardless of the condition being treated—translate their ketamine experiences into meaningful, real-life change.
In addition, we offer a daily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness Program available to all clients at no extra cost. These services provide essential tools for emotional regulation, self-awareness, and long-term mental wellness.
To ensure truly comprehensive care, we also maintain strong referral partnerships with a trusted network of psychiatrists, psychologists, neurologists, and pain management specialists.
Our commitment is simple yet profound: to provide every client with a holistic, therapeutic experience that supports healing, growth, and optimized outcomes beyond the infusion room.
5. Conveniently Located in Los Angeles
Centrally located in Los Angeles, our clinic serves patients from West LA, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, and beyond. We’ve created a calm, private, and professional environment for healing—free from the distractions and impersonal feel of larger centers.
