Providing Ketamine as treatment for mental health is growing in popularity throughout the country as research continues to show positive results.
Over the past 50 years, research on psychedelics has come a long way from a time when psychedelic albums ruled the charts and psychedelic drugs influenced American counterculture."I mean, it's pretty profound," said Katy Parr, who sought ketamine therapy.
From there, Parr was recommended by her therapist as a candidate for ketamine therapy and says she's been benefiting from the sessions ever since. "If the goal is to explore trauma, each session has its own value," said Dr. Michael Muench, who leads the Field Trip Health clinic in Atlanta. The guided experience takes patients on a journey or"trip." In a dimly lit room, patients wear an eye mask and headphones; it's a comfortable space for them to address trauma and experience somatic release — something Parr says she experienced during her fourth session.
And while the DEA restricts many other psychedelics, researchers have found great benefits in substances like MDMA and psilocybin, or magic mushrooms. "It allowed me to find the pathway to such fulfillment in life and enrichment in my life," said Parr.
