Ketamine Treatment Cost

The ketamine treatment cost can vary depending on the method of administration and the number of sessions required. Typically, clients see positive benefits and often remission from depression after a course of six-to-ten sessions over three-to-five weeks (twice a week). From there, occasional maintenance ketamine treatments may be necessary, which is entirely dependent on how each individual responds to ketamine treatment and the recommendations from your medical providers, which is an integral part of ketamine therapy at Lumin Health.

Ketamine infusion involves the administration of the medication through an intravenous (IV) line over a period of time. This method delivers a controlled dosage of ketamine directly into the bloodstream, which is known for its rapid onset time and easily-controllable dosage delivery. An IV line is started for a patient and the patient remains attached to the line and IV pump for the duration of their treatment, roughly 2 hours.

At Lumin Health, we use ketamine intramuscular (IM) shots to deliver ketamine - typically a shot into the upper arm - making the process more convenient for our clients.

Both ketamine infusion and ketamine intramuscular treatment are supported by scientific and medical literature as effective options for various mental health conditions. While infusion requires an IV line and a longer session, intramuscular treatment involves a simple shot, making it less invasive and more manageable.

Typically, ketamine infusion (IV) sessions can last several hours, whereas intramuscular (IM) treatment sessions are typically shorter. Most of our clients find that 90 minutes is enough time to get the treatment and recover.

Our typical ketamine treatment plan consists of six-to-ten sessions (determined by how you respond) over three-to-five weeks. This structured approach has been found to be effective in delivering sustainable relief for depression through ketamine therapy. The ketamine treatment cost at Lumin Health is $500 per session or $3,000-$5,000 for the full course. This comprehensive approach allows us to provide a more budget-friendly option compared to traditional ketamine infusion treatments, which can run $600 to $1,000 or more per treatment.

We understand that each patient's needs are unique.  As a result, we tailor our ketamine treatment plans and associated costs to suit individual requirements, ensuring that you receive the most effective and personalized care.

That being said, Lumin Health's Spravato (esketamine) treatment protocol is robust, effective, safe, and covered by insurance. This is because Spravato and esketamine treatment have been approved by the FDA 

Ketamine intramuscular treatment at Lumin Health is priced at $500 per session. This cost structure often provides a more affordable option compared to IV ketamine infusion treatments, which is typically more expensive when comparing how much does ketmaine therapy cost.

Ketamine intramuscular treatment sessions are typically shorter than infusion sessions, usually lasting around 60-90 minutes.

Absolutely. We believe in providing personalized care, and our treatment plans are tailored to meet the specific needs of each patient.
