FAQs

1. Am I eligible for ketamine therapy?

Eligibility for ketamine therapy is determined through a comprehensive screening process and a medical intake with Dr. Farzin. This ensures that ketamine therapy is safe and appropriate for your specific needs. Only after this evaluation will you be cleared for treatment. Please note that there is no guarantee of receiving ketamine until this process is complete.

2. Does insurance cover the cost of ketamine therapy?

Our program is currently out-of-pocket, and insurance may not cover the costs. However, we provide an itemized bill that you can submit to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement. We recommend checking with your provider to understand your coverage options.

3. How many ketamine treatments will I need?

The number of ketamine treatments varies depending on individual needs.

We recommend two initial treatments to determine suitability and adjust dosage. After these sessions, additional treatments are available based on your progress and specific requirements.

4. Is ketamine therapy safe?

Yes, ketamine therapy is safe when administered by trained professionals. At Mystic Health, we ensure the highest standard of care, with all treatments conducted by our experienced clinical team in a controlled and supportive environment. Our evidence-based approach prioritizes patient safety and well-being.

5. Can I experience psychedelic therapy without using ketamine?

Yes, at Mystic Health, we believe in a holistic approach to healing. While ketamine-assisted therapy is one of the modalities we offer, we also provide psychedelic experiences through non-drug methods such as Breathwork and Mindfulness practices. These methods can help facilitate deep states of consciousness, allowing for inner transformation and healing without the use of substances. If you're looking for an alternative approach, we’re happy to discuss how these therapies may benefit you.
