KETAMINE INFUSION THERAPY
Fast & Efficient Postpartum Depression Treatment in Helena, MT
“Postpartum depression makes you suddenly feel like a stranger to yourself, but knowing the clinical facts are the first step toward wellness.”
A CDC study shows that about 1 in 10 women in the United States reported symptoms that suggest they experienced an episode of major depression in the last year, but according to the American Psychological Association, 1 in 7 women experience a much more serious mood disorder–postpartum depression (PPD).
Ketamine infusion therapy for postpartum depression can offer relief from many depression symptoms, including anxiety, lonesomeness, and lack of interest in enjoyable activities. Managing postpartum with ketamine works rapidly since it is administered intravenously – a number of patients observe a big difference in just a couple of hours.

What Are The Symptoms of Postpartum Depression?
The warning signs may vary from person to person and sometimes may not be obvious. Some of the symptoms to look out for:

- Feeling unable to take care of your baby
- Crying spells and tearfulness
- Trouble bonding with your baby
How Does Ketamine Help Treat Postpartum Depression?
Scientists believe that ketamine helps with postpartum depression by rapidly boosting the activity of glutamate, a neurotransmitter inside the frontal cortex of the human brain, while also allowing new pathways to form in the same area.
The promptness of ketamine in yielding its therapeutic effect occurs because it bypasses the conventional serotonin path and goes straight to switching on glutamate.
This is remarkably different from conventional treatments, which initially boost serotonin activity levels in different areas of the brain to ultimately affect glutamate. This process usually takes weeks, sometimes months. Ketamine, on the other hand, produces rapid results and relief from postpartum depression symptoms.
The Ketamine Infusion Experience
During treatment, we go above and beyond to make sure all of our patients feel as comfortable as possible in their own private rooms. Infusions typically last 45-60 minutes for mood disorders, while chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia require a larger dose and can take up to several hours to complete.
A number of our patients refer to a “dissociative” effect, and most of our patients respond positively to this sensation. In many cases, this disassociation effect is what aids with your treatment and delivers a positive response to ketamine therapy.
These are all ordinary components of the treatment. You will always remain in a safe atmosphere with our team there to monitor you and be readily available during your infusion.
What Are The Side Effects of Ketamine Treatment?
As a new treatment option for postpartum depression, ketamine does have a few minor side effects. These can include a dream-like feeling, disrupted vision, lightheadedness, nausea, or some slight anxious feelings after treatment.
Ketamine is an FDA-approved medication utilized in “off-label” use for infusion therapy. Off-label use indicates that it is a treatment that the FDA did not initially authorize. The FDA approves prescription medications only for specific uses, but most medications at some point develop off-label uses as a result of the clinical experience that develops with time.
