Nushama Psychedelic Wellness, nestled in Manhattan Midtown, New York, is a pioneering clinic offering groundbreaking ketamine infusions aimed at those looking for an alternative approach to therapy. As part of its mission to make mental wellness accessible to all, Nushama has assembled an expert team of leading medical practitioners, therapists, and specialists in mood disorders, addiction, psychiatry, and anesthesiology. With a wealth of combined experience, this dedicated team is spearheading a fresh approach to healing and recovery through their ketamine treatment services. Before initiating treatment, a comprehensive pre-treatment assessment is conducted to ensure that ketamine therapy is appropriate. This includes a careful review of the patient's medical history, medication to confirm no contraindication, and thorough testing such as blood and urine tests, blood pressure, and EKG monitoring.

When it comes to the actual psychedelic treatment sessions, Nushama utilizes a unique approach that is both intensive and comprehensive. The clinic's anesthesiologists typically administer approximately 6 treatments or infusions over a period of 2-4 weeks, with patients receiving up to 2 infusions a week. These sessions are conducted in a serene, dimly lit atmosphere complemented by ambient music to optimize the therapeutic effects. Continual monitoring of vital signs and anesthesia levels by the Nushama doctors ensures patient safety throughout. Apart from this, a key part of Nushama’s treatment philosophy involves working directly with patients to help them obtain meaningful insights from their experiences. A range of techniques, including yoga, journaling, meditation, mindfulness methods, or even simply revisiting music played during the psychedelic session can be incorporated into this integrative process. Ultimately, Nushama’s therapists are committed to ensuring the longevity of therapeutic effects and, if required, will provide additional integration or “booster” sessions depending on the patient’s needs.
